Christmas Market on Main at Historic Main Street (Yorktown)

If you are a fan of the German Christmas Markets, then youll love our Christmas Market on Main Street! This two-day (Dec. 6-7) event is one of the most anticipated every holiday season. https://www.visityorktown.org/calendar.aspx?EID=5078
Close to 100 vendors line the street selling everything from glass ornaments and handmade soaps to Christmas wreaths and jewelry! The Town Crier will ring in the market at 10 a.m. on Saturday, followed by a performance from the Fifes and Drums of York Town. Then, Santa Claus himself will ride in on York County’s first fire truck, before mingling with the crowd to greet families.
