New Rochelle brings holiday sparkle to the city with its first annual Holiday Market. Running from December 3 to December 12, the market takes place in a special winter village inside the New Rochelle train station complex. Stop by each day between 5:00 PM and 7:00 PM for fun to-dos like swag bag giveaways, food samples, DJs, local choirs, performers, and entertainment designed just for kids. Plus, keep an eye out for free classes on everything from wreath making to mixology. And did we mention there’s an Instagram booth, too? As for the vendors, this market pays special attention to minority- and women-owned businesses and provides them with a venue to showcase their crafts, products, and wares.
Two hours of free parking on the rooftop deck of the New Rochelle Transit Center Garage.
