More than 125 artisans, bars and a Christmas tree lot
Snowport is a market of independent makers rather than a German market. It brings together more than 125 artisans and makers, 61% of them from New England and 16% taking part for the first time. The village, styled on a mountain chalet, gathers shops, food stalls and cocktail bars, with a heated tent for sitting down, and a Christmas tree lot sells the trees.
Where the Boston Christmas market is and how to get there
The market is held at 100 Seaport Boulevard, in Boston’s Seaport District. From Europe, flights are worth comparing between airlines.
