A vibrant, collaborative event where aspiring kids showcase and sell their handmade creations alongside established local vendors from the Coast. The first 300 visitors will receive free “Kidpreneur Cash,” courtesy of the Sunshine Coast Credit Union, to spend at any of our +30 youth vendors. This guarantees sales for the kids and makes it a successful night for everyone!
The event will feature a festive gingerbread house competition, a North Pole selfie station, kids’ games and crafts, hot chocolate, food trucks, and much more! The 2024 main vendor artisans include pottery, photography, skincare & wellness, candles, baking, fabric arts, and more. Come celebrate creativity, community, and the holiday spirit at the HMB Holiday Market!
