It's not just about the shopping at the market--there are lots of food & drink vendors too. Try a spiral potato or some Spatzle. Wrap your chilly fingers around a hot mug of Glühwein (mulled wine) or my favourite: the slightly higher-test version with rum--Feuerzangenbowle--as you walk around & enjoy the old world charm of the market. Don't miss a spin on Christmas Carousel while you listen to live musical performances. Get your photos taken with Holly & Jolly, the market's real live gingerbread people.
2014 Vancouver Christmas Market is located in the Queen Elizabeth Theatre Plaza, 650 Hamilton Street, & it's open until December 24th, 11am to 9pm daily; (only til 6pm on December 24th).
