Holly Jolly Holiday Market 2025

Belleville Armouries 187 Pinnacle St.

We’re excited to announce the return of the Holly Jolly Holiday Market in 2025! Join us as we once again transform the Belleville Armoury into a festive, community-centered holiday market.

Presented by PEC Markets, this beloved event brings together the very best of Prince Edward County and the Bay of Quinte region’s vibrant maker communities. From handcrafted gifts and gourmet goodies to locally made art, jewelry, home décor, and more, the Holly Jolly Holiday Market is a true celebration of small business and seasonal spirit.

We proudly support and collaborate with local producers, artists, and entrepreneurs, and we welcome applications from makers, creators, and small businesses ready to bring their holiday best.
