It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas…

It’s getting to be that time of year again, which means the massive annual holiday market at Columbus Circle is now open.

The market officially opened yesterday and will run through December 24th. Hours are 10 am – 8 pm, Monday through Saturday, and 10 am – 7 pm on Sunday. It’s located by Merchant’s Gate, at the intersection of Central Park West, Central Park South, and Columbus Circle.

You can view the market’s official page here. You can download a printable guide here.

Now in its 7th year, the market features more than 100 vendors selling a wide array of goods from gingerbread houses and french truffles to handcrafted home accessories and gourmet food.

The booths are designed in the tradition of European holiday markets — even if you don’t buy anything, simply strolling through with a cup of hot cider is an event unto itself.
