WINNIPEG – With malls full of holiday shoppers, The Forks Market is extending its hours and launching a new shopping event.

The first annual Holiday Bazzaar runs from 5:00 – 9:00 p.m. Thursday, December 3.

For a donation to the Christmas Cheer Board, those in attendance can receive childcare, gift wrapping and coat check.

“We wanted to make the holiday shopping experience really nice while helping people shop local,” said Raegan Hedley from The Forks.

There will also be live music and spontaneous performances throughout the evening with a wine and hot chocolate bar.
