- Unique Shopping Experience: Shop for one-of-a-kind gifts and souvenirs. Whether you’re looking for handmade jewelry, cozy knitwear, or home décor items, you’ll find something special at our carefully curated stalls.
- Scandinavian Delights: Treat your taste buds to the flavors of Scandinavia! Indulge in baked goods and imported treats that capture the essence of Nordic cuisine. Treat your taste buds at the cafe, serving a small assortment of Finnish food + coffee and warm drinks.
- Community Connections: Connect with fellow enthusiasts, artists, and artisans who share your passion for Scandinavian culture. Engage in conversations, learn about the stories behind the crafts, and make lasting memories with a community bonded by creativity.

This annual Christmas Market was started by the Purpurit Folk Dancers many years ago. The Vancouver Finlandia Club was given the opportunity to take it over several years ago, and gladly agreed. It takes many volunteers and vendors to make the craft fair a success, and the planning begins in the summer of each year.

The fair features many local vendors with crafts, art, baked goods + Finnish and other Scandinavian or Nordic products. The Vancouver Finlandia Club handmakes hundreds of Karjalanpiirakka to sell, and the FinnFun School has Joulutorttus and their fundraising raffle which are always crowd favourites. Other vendors also have baking for sale, including pulla, cookies, breads and other treats.
