For four weekends in November and December, Olde Mecklenburg Brewery will transform into a German-inspired Christmas Market, known as Weihnachtsmarkt. OMB Christmas Market features vendors selling gifts and baked goods from open-air booths.
2023 marks the 12th anniversary of OMB’s Christmas Market, and it’s become a popular holiday tradition, and a favorite spot for Christmas shopping.
More than 40 vendors will be at each market.
It’s free to attend.

Bring the whole family to enjoy hot cocoa, fire pits, and entertainment. Each Saturday, from 2 to 5 p.m., Santa will be there for pictures. There’s no charge to take pictures.

- Friday: 11 a.m. to 11 p.m.
