Find your perfect gift at the Hudson Holiday Market

The 2025 Hudson Holiday Market is on at the Alibi Barn (422 Rue Main) in Hudson on November 21, 22, 23, 28, 29 and 30 and December 5, 6 and 7. Visiting the market is like stepping into a scene lifted straight from a storybook. Twinkling lights dance overhead, the scent of mulled cider hangs in the air, and soft carols guide you from one charming stall to the next. Every corner of the Hudson Holiday Market glows with warmth — a European-inspired Christmas village right in the heart of our town.

Founded by sisters Katrina and Jacobe Legault, the market began with a heartfelt idea: to create a beautiful space where local artisans — many without brick-and-mortar shops — could share their work with the community during the most magical time of the year. What started as a small gesture of support has grown into a beloved annual tradition celebrating creativity, connection, and the spirit of the season.

More than a market, the Hudson Holiday Market is a curated experience designed to delight all the senses. Picture charming vendor stalls filled with hand-crafted treasures, seasonal food and drink to warm your hands and heart, visits from Santa Claus and the local fire department, live music drifting through the crisp air, whimsical face painting, festive photo sessions, and enchanting details waiting to be discovered around every corner. Every element — from the styling of each booth to the gentle glow of the lights — is thoughtfully crafted to create a setting that feels as magical (and photo-worthy) as it is memorable.

At its heart, this market is a celebration of community. Each year, space is dedicated to charitable initiatives, with a special ongoing partnership with NOVA, an extraordinary organization providing compassionate in-home care through dedicated nurses. Supporting this cause has become a meaningful cornerstone of the event.

Whether you’re searching for the perfect handcrafted gift, sipping something warm, or simply wandering through the glow and bustle, the Hudson Holiday Market invites you to slow down, savour the moment, and experience the joy of the season in a truly enchanting way.
