The European Christmas Market brings Old World holiday charm to Coeur d'Alene. Inspired by the traditional Weihnachtsmärkte of Germany and Austria, this two-day market is a premium holiday shopping experience with a distinctly different atmosphere from typical craft fairs.
What Makes This Special
Where most holiday fairs feel like "craft fair + Christmas," the European Christmas Market commits to the aesthetic. Think warm lighting, hot mulled cider, artisan goods displayed with care, and a cozy atmosphere that feels like stepping into a storybook village. It's shopping as an experience, not just a transaction.
What to Find
- Handmade holiday gifts — ornaments, woodwork, textiles, and art
- European-inspired treats — stollen, lebkuchen, mulled wine, and hot chocolate
- Artisan goods curated for quality and craftsmanship
- Unique finds you won't see at other local fairs
Perfect for Gift Shopping
If you've been putting off holiday shopping, this is the event to fix that. The vendors here skew toward higher-quality, more unique pieces — the kind of gifts that make people say "where did you find this?" Prices reflect the quality, but you're buying something genuinely special.
About the Venue
The Elks Lodge RV Campground setting is cozy and contained, creating the intimate market feel that a European Christmas market needs. Parking is available on-site, and the Coeur d'Alene holiday lights and decorations around town add to the festive spirit.
