11th Annual Christmas Market
Saturday, December 7, 2024
2:00PM-6:00PM
Spring Oak at Bedford - The Elks Home
931 Ashland Avenue, Bedford, VA 24523
For 70 years, Bedford has been called the "Christmas Capital of Virginia." Our community loves to enjoy the most wonderful time of the year, and the first Saturday of December is especially packed with festivities, from the Christmas Classic 5K to the Bedford Christmas Parade to the Community Christmas Tree Lighting.
Come celebrate all day with us in Bedford! Our Christmas Market is a fantastic way to shop local for the holidays, and we'll be joined by a wide variety of artisans, small businesses, farmers, bakers, and more.
Vendors will be situated inside and outside Spring Oak at Bedford. You'll not only get to see the infamous Elks Home Christmas lights but also their elaborate festival of trees!
$5 Entry for Ages 18+
However, $1 = 1 entry for a raffle item of your choice! Additional raffle tickets can be purchased at the door.

No indoor spaces remain! All outdoor spaces are 10x10 ft and will have excellent foot traffic.
Vendor set-up will begin at 12:30PM. We will have chairs, round tables, and square tables available for indoor vendor use. Please plan to bring any materials you may need, including extension cords. Special thanks to Overstreet Hardware for donating several outdoor heaters for this event!
A detailed driving route to the venue will be provided to all vendors prior to the event, as the Bedford Christmas Parade will necessitate the closing of several streets connected to the venue during vendor set-up hours. Streets will return to normal prior to the official start of the event.
