The Greater Cincinnati Holiday Market is one of our favorite festive Southwest Ohio traditions.
This event truly is a one-stop holiday shop complete with food, entertainment, unique gifts of all kinds, toys, home décor, wine and Santa, of course!
Think of it as the kickoff to your holiday shopping season!
It’s going to be held at the Sharonville Convention Center this year, November 8-10. We LOVE the convenience of this centrally located, suburban venue, and we know you will too!
Here are our Top 5 reasons why you should mark your calendar and get your tickets right this second so you don’t miss out on all the holly jolly fun:
1. Convenient, Northern Cincinnati Location
The centrally-located Sharonville Convention Center is so easy to get to from every area of Greater Cincinnati! Whether you’re coming from the northern suburbs, Dayton, Columbus, Indianapolis, Kentucky, or the east or west side of Cincinnati, this location is conveniently located for all, just off of the intersection of I-275 and I-75.
2. Two Levels of Holiday Cheer
Explore two glorious levels packed full of festive fun, food, gifts and décor galore! Check out this year’s show floor map (link to or embed map image) to plan your visit on both levels to make the most of your holiday shopping experience.
Remember to visit Santa! Head to the lower level to take a selfie with Santa in front of the gorgeous background display created by Fleurish Home. The cocktails and food court are located on the lower level too, so don’t miss it!
