Thousands of neighbours will come together to kick off the holiday season, shop 50+ vendors, drink hot chocolate, enjoy performances, get their photo with Santa and light the festive tree!
Funds raised will help NeighbourLink continue its programs through the end of 2026 including our two food banks in North York!
Last year we celebrated the season together while caring for our neighbours! Learn more through our Christmas Market blog HERE
