Chattanooga Gets Ready for a Holiday Extravaganza!
The Countdown to Christmas is On!
This holiday season, Chattanooga is buzzing with excitement as the Chattanooga Market prepares to usher in a festive spirit! With only two Sundays left to shop outdoors, there’s no time to waste for those last-minute Thanksgiving supplies. Mark your calendars for Sunday, November 24th, as that’s when the Thanksgiving Market launches into a flurry of holiday cheer.
Feast Your Eyes on Local Goodies!
For families gearing up for the feast, the Chattanooga Market has got you covered with everything you need for a delicious meal, including that all-important turkey! You’ll find a cornucopia of fresh, local vegetables, scrumptious breads, delightful cranberry sauce, and an array of mouth-watering pies. Who doesn’t love the idea of savoring fresh, locally sourced foods for Thanksgiving?
But that’s not all—the market also boasts beautiful fall flower selections, perfect for creating the ultimate centerpiece that will have your dinner guests talking.
Get Ready to Chill!
This year, there’s a new twist to the Thanksgiving Market; introducing Ice on the Landing! Celebrating its 10-year anniversary, this charming ice skating rink will be the center of attention on Sunday, November 24th. Open most days through February 2nd, Ice on the Landing will provide a delightful winter wonderland experience. Plus, keep an eye out for the new “chill zone,” where you can find cozy seating, a television for relaxation, games, and even a cozy fire pit to warm up after skating.
Don’t forget—these are also the last two Sundays where you can stock up on farm-fresh foods before winter takes over. Many vendors will have canned and jarred offerings, ensuring you have a stockpile of tasty goodies as winter settles in.
