Portland’s Holiday Market is coming to town! Shop outside the big box at the Portland Expo Center.
Does this event sound familiar? Instead of the annual America’s Largest Christmas Bazaar, the Portland Expo Center is hosting the Portland Holiday Market. This new holiday shopping experience focuses on local makers.
Attend the Northwest’s premier Christmas craft, food and gift show.
