Each year, Congress Hall searches for additions to its Winter Wonderland Vendor Village. In addition to many advantages, approved vendors enjoy brand exposure to over 40,000 visitors over 26 days, a designated booth within Winter Wonderland, and special access to Winter Wonderland amenities.
Winter Wonderland is Congress Hall's holiday season celebration that kicks off the Friday after Thanksgiving and runs until December 31st. Most activities and events take place weekly from Thursday through Sunday, and include Breakfast with Santa, unique holiday dining in the Ballroom, a holiday shopping village, children's crafts and activities, story time with Mrs. Claus, and an annual tree lighting event that draws high overnight occupancy and local interest.
Our Vendor Village offers an eclectic alley of artists, merchandisers, taste-makers and trend setters. As a Vendor, all you need to do is show up-we'll take care of the rest.
