Details

Begin this Holiday Season by spreading joy and Christmas cheer in our community. We are back! This year we're bringing a small-town feel to our community. We are hosting our second annual Christmas Market & Walking Parade. Join us as we gather together with our neighbours outside and celebrate all that's special about this time of year.

About this Event

Join us on November 26, 2022 from 3pm-7pm at Willowdale Presbyterian Church. The Market includes local artisans, free hot chocolate and chili (while quantities last), live entertainment, and a visit from Santa himself. The parade is a joyful celebration and you can come dressed in your festive outfits as we walk along both Yonge Street and Beecroft Road
