Imagine strolling through rows of charming stalls adorned with twinkling lights, where local artisans showcase their handcrafted treasures. You'll have the chance to find unique gifts, from cozy knit scarves to delicate ornaments, all while sipping on warm spiced cider. It's a shopper's paradise that will fill your heart with the warmth of the season.

This stop will also be your lunch stop. Lunch is not included in the tour package but  there will be a number of food vendors available at the show to satify all tastes.

Special Offer From The Markham Show For Our Bus Group!
Upon arrival at the fairgrounds the organizers will welcome while you are on the bus and will be doing a random draw for 4 gift certificates of $25 each for 4 lucky passengers. You will be able to use the certificates that day!
Our day of holiday delights doesn't end there! After exploring the craft show, we'll whisk you away to the Niemi Family Farm Christmas Market, where the enchantment continues. This picturesque farm transforms into a winter wonderland where you will be able to savor delectable Finnish seasonal treats like pulla (cardamom bread), piparkakut (traditional gingerbread cookies), and spice cake while picking out the perfect handmade wreaths to adorn your home.
