Shop Local at Grand Holiday Bazaar

Purchase one-of-a-kind handmade holiday decorations, candles, skincare products, vintage accessories and collectibles, handmade jewelry and furniture, rare antique silver and glassware in addition to delicious artisanal chocolates and foods. All of the vendors are small independent and local business owners and artisans, making each item sold one-of-a-kind or limited edition. Grand Holiday Bazaar is the only indoor and outdoor holiday market in NYC and visitors can feel good knowing that 100% of the proceeds from booth rentals go to aide thousands of local New York City Public School children in the area.
