About

This year's Holiday Market will be held at Union Station, 575 Broadway in downtown Albany on December 6, 4:00 PM-7:00 PM, and December 7, 11:00 AM-3:00 PM. The Hot Chocolate Stroll will take place in conjunction with the market on December 7. The market is free to enter, and open to the public. Guests of the Hot Chocolate Stroll may check in early at the Downtown Albany BID's booth on Friday, located on the northern end of the market, to your left as you enter from Broadway.

 

Guests of the market can enjoy spectacular holiday shopping with 45 local vendors, sample last year's winning hot chocolate from The Hollow Bar + Kitchen on Friday, enjoy live music on Saturday, and feel festive against the backdrop of the newly re-imagined, breath-taking concourse of historic Union Station at 575 Broadway in downtown Albany, fully decked out for the holidays.
