Fall is here, with its brilliant colours, cozy textures, and seasonal markets. Calgary has loads of craft markets, and this is the season to get out and support local businesses, artisans, and entrepreneurs. And if a little holiday shopping is done along the way, who’s going to complain?!
Because, before you know it, the Christmas season will be here, with its twinkling lights, cocoa by the fireplace … and trying to find the perfect gift. This Christmas season, forget the mall! Get your shopping done, support local businesses and enjoy a festive holiday experience! Christmas markets and craft sales are a fun and affordable way to get into the holiday mood and tick some “to-do’s” off your list.
