The holiday season brings a unique kind of feeling that is tough to beat – the chilly air, glowing lights, laughter of friends and family, and that cozy feeling of gathering together. We all know how North Dakota winters can get, and in order to get through, we have to think creatively in finding community. This year, The Pines is doing something a little different, and we are inviting you to gather by attending our 2025 Pines Holiday Market! A full afternoon of celebration, local creativity, and festive spirit – open to the community and FREE to attend!

Date: Sunday, December 7, 2025

Time: 1:00 – 5:00 PM

Picture this: a beautiful Sunday afternoon, a slight snowfall and no wind (wishful thinking of course), stepping into The Pines’ venue themed for the holidays, stopping from vendor booth to booth and soaking in good company and festivity. This is the kind of event you mark on your calendar, because there is not a lot that’ll make venturing in the cold worth the while!

Vendor Opportunities & What’s Inside

For all of the creative makers, artisans, bakers, and small-business owners: this is their chance to shine. We have officially closed the application window for local vendors who want to be part of the lineup, and due to so much interest and attention, we have moved the market to our opposite venue in order to make room, quite literally with the mindset of “go big or go home”.

What Sets This Market Apart

So many holiday markets feel familiar – but The Pines is going for something a bit more elevated, heart-warming, and intentionally local. Here’s what makes it stand out:

• Immersive Atmosphere: It’s not just shopping; it’s an experience. The market will include light music, creativity, and displays that invite you to stay awhile.
• Local-First Focus: Every vendor listed is local or regional, making this market a true celebration of community creativity rather than just a generic pop-up.
• Free and Family-Friendly: No cost to attend, so families and friends can join in the fun without any barrier. As a family-oriented owned business, we understand that the holiday comes with spending on people you love, so rather than paying to get in, pay to shop!
• Unique venue backdrop: The event takes place at Pines Black – a venue associated with weddings and special occasions – transformed into a holiday destination for that single afternoon. This adds a level of sophistication while balancing charm you don’t always find at typical craft fairs.
• A Strollable Holiday Outing: With just one afternoon and one location, it’s easy to plan – even if your time is limited. Pop in, engage, shop, connect, leave with something meaningful, and still be home in time for a good Sunday dinner.

Why You Don’t Want to Miss Out

Whether you’re coming to shop, browse, support local makers, or simply soak in the holiday vibe – this market offers something for everyone:

• For gift hunters: Find one-of-a-kind items, support artisans, and skip the big-box holiday rush.
• For social time: Bring friends, family, or come solo and enjoy live creativity, warm drinks, and good company.
• For community lovers: This event helps spotlight small businesses and local talent in the best way.
• For holiday memory-makers: The energy, the venue, the vendors – it all combines into an outing that is perfect for the holiday.

We Hope to See You There

We don’t want to just give you an event, we want to give an experience that lasts. Despite the fun and artistic materials that all of the vendors will offer, it’s more than that. It’s a time to gather together and enjoy each others company, it’s a time to connect, laugh, and try new things. Don’t just take home an item, walk away with a holiday memory that, believe it or not, will make you wish that winter comes around sooner next year! Trust us, the Pines, with your holiday experience – the way many have trusted us with their wedding day. Let’s have a good time together, see you December 7th!
