Imagine a village market from a Renaissance winter, brought to life at the start of the holiday season. Rows of merchant stalls are dressed for a Renaissance Christmas, vendors wear period attire, and tables of honest handmade work abound. You'll find no mass-produced trinkets; just craft worth a snowflake-filled journey.

Come find gifts you won't see anywhere else, pick up a festive treat, and soak up the merriment. Wander in from your holiday shopping or make the Faire the outing itself. Costumes are welcome on visitors, too!

Artisan-made gifts

Unique, quality goods from local artisans, creators, and makers — the kind of one-of-a-kind gifts a big-box store can't offer.

Festive food & drink

Food vendors join the market with festive treats to enjoy while you browse.

Fun for the whole family

A family-friendly market in a warm indoor hall — no tents, no frostbite, and plenty to delight kids and grown-ups alike.

For character actors, minstrels & stage performers

Perform at the Faire

A Renaissance Christmas market is made as much by its people as by its wares. Tell us what you do and when you can be there, and we will find you a place among the stalls. We set the lineup a month before the Faire, so let us hear from you by November 4, 2026.

Every sort of performer

Character actors and guilds, minstrels and musical acts, jugglers, fighters, storytellers, and every other feat of skill — anyone who can bring a Renaissance Christmas to life. Rove the hall in character and gather a crowd in the aisles and between the stalls, hold a permanent setup for visitors to seek out, or take dedicated time on the stage. Lords and ladies, rogues, jesters, and holiday folk all have a place here.

Apply to Perform

The Faire is indoors and family-friendly: no open flame, no fire performance, and nothing that blocks the aisles or the mall's walkways. Staged combat is welcome, but it must be cleared with us in advance and follow the mall's rules and Code of Conduct. Costume and act should fit a Renaissance Christmas. Come for an hour or for all three days — whatever you can give the Faire.

See you at the Faire

Mark your calendar: December 4–6, 2026 at The Atrium at The Shops at South Town in Sandy. Bring the family — and your Christmas list.

Artisans, creators, and food vendors — applications open September 20. Apply early: a first round of acceptances goes out by October 20, and all applications close November 4, 2026.

Character actors, minstrels, jugglers, and other performers — come add to the flavor of the Faire. Let us know by November 4, 2026.
