The Pittsburgh Downtown Partnership (PDP) is bringing back the Peoples Gas Holiday Market™ for its 14th season this November, celebrating the sights, sounds, and spirit of the holidays in Downtown. Due to ongoing construction in Market Square (scheduled through Spring 2026), this year’s market will temporarily relocate to the Cultural District, while continuing to deliver the same festive charm and family-friendly magic that have made it a holiday favorite and a Pittsburgh institution for nearly 15 years. Full location details will be announced soon.

Opening the Friday before Thanksgiving and running through Christmas Eve (closed Thanksgiving Day), the Peoples Gas Holiday Market™ will once again transform Downtown into a festive shopping village filled with twinkling lights, decorated chalets, and handcrafted treasures from around the world. This annual event is a key driver of seasonal foot traffic and economic impact, supporting local businesses, restaurants, and artisans during this critical time of the year.

Now Accepting Holiday Market Vendor Applications

The Peoples Gas Holiday Market™ is a unique opportunity for vendors to be part of a cherished tradition that draws thousands of holiday shoppers and visitors each year. From handcrafted goods and global gifts to specialty food and drink items, the market offers a high-visibility platform for vendors in the heart of the City’s most dynamic cultural corridor.

Applications for Holiday Market vendors are being accepted now through August 8, 2025.
