Eugene Saturday Market Holiday Market moves indoors at Lane Events Center

The Eugene Saturday Market will stage its Holiday Market indoors at the Lane Events Center on the Lane County Fairgrounds on Saturday and Sunday, December 13 and 14. Doors open at 10:00 a.m. and the market runs until 6:00 p.m. both days. The move indoors concentrates local craft vendors, artisans, food booths and a full entertainment program under one roof for holiday shoppers.

Featured vendor categories include handcrafted jewelry, pottery, clothing, fiber arts, woodwork, paper goods, body care and specialty food vendors. Organizers are publishing a vendor and member booth map for visitors to plan their route through the fairgrounds building. The published lineup and participating members are subject to change up to opening, so visitors should confirm details before arriving.

Live music and performances will run on multiple stages. On December 13 the Evergreen Market Stage schedule lists Axon, Aruna Beth Miriam Rose and Friends, Basin St Band, Riseohm, and Dennis Smith and the Hillbilly Fools. Concurrent programming in Holiday Hall includes Kenn Amdahl, the Eugene Peace Choir, Oregon Honeycomb, Willy D, Light, and Sugar Pine. On December 14 the Evergreen stage features Libracello, The Fuzzy Brothers, John Shipe and Patrick Kavaney, Brian QTN, and Heavy Cream’s Holly Jolly Drag Revue, with additional Holiday Hall acts through the afternoon.

For Lane County residents the market serves both as a community gathering and as a concentrated sales opportunity for local makers during a busy holiday shopping period. Bringing the market indoors reduces weather risk for attendance and merchandise and can help stabilize foot traffic for small sellers who depend on December sales.

Practical details include the weekend hours of 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. at the Lane Events Center on the Lane County Fairgrounds. The market page carries the full schedule, vendor listings and the booth map and should be consulted for last minute changes before visiting.
