Since 1986, the Harvard Square Holiday Fair has brought dozens of vendors to the square from New England and beyond, selling a range of eclectic wares perfect for holiday gifts.

The juried holiday fair is free to attend and features purveyors selling items like prints, pottery, photography, candles, t-shirts, jewelry, books, knitwear, cosmetics, wooden utensils, vintage items, jams and jellies, and much more. 

Guests will also find music and community spirit at the high-energy holiday fair.

The fair relocated to 33 Dunster Street, the former location of John Harvard’s Brewery & Ale House, last year and will be located there again this year. It runs from Dec. 9-11, and again from Dec. 16-18. It’s worth noting that vendors can vary each day.
