Denver’s Cherry Creek Holiday Market returns to Fillmore Plaza Nov. 19–Dec. 24, for its seventh, most ambitious year yet.

 

“I can’t believe this is the 7th year of the Cherry Creek Holiday Market,” said Blake Adams, founder, Fetch Concepts, the company behind the market. “We’ve had an amazing ride building this Denver holiday tradition and 2026 will be the best year yet! I’m most excited about our amazing retailer lineup and the incredible Mistletoe Lounge and decor upgrades.”

The market trades its familiar holiday look this year for something more “Colorado”: an Après Ski Lodge theme. Fillmore Street transforms into a snow-dusted mountain town beneath nearly one million twinkling lights.

 

CCHM will bring together more than 50 rotating Colorado makers, designers and artisans. Mistletoe Lounge boasts a curated menu of holiday-inspired cocktails and non-alcoholic sips.

The growth is not exclusive to only the market aesthetic; it also applies to successful sustainability initiatives, with CCHM achieving a verified 70 percent-plus waste diversion rate and running on battery-powered energy across the market footprint. Its new Market Mastery program gives every confirmed 2026 retailer hands-on business resources and a complimentary Denver Chamber of Commerce membership, serving as a launchpad for Colorado small businesses.

 

The market markets itself as more than a retail event. Its five-week run gives emerging businesses access to thousands of potential customers in one of Denver’s highest-profile shopping districts. In 2025, the average retailer grossed more than $42,000 during the market.

 

CCHM projects 80,000 guests will visit this season.
