Wines and Spirits

The Circle Craft Christmas Market returns to the Vancouver Convention Centre West this week! Beginning Wednesday, November 9, and running through to Sunday, November 13, the 43rd annual Market will feature over 300 artisans, 60 of which are new to the show. Five of these exhibitors form a new category we’re pleased to include for the first time this year, Grapes & Grains, which features wines and a variety of spirits.
