Be a part of Newark’s hippest (*heated*) holiday shopping spot!

NJPAC seeks artisans and vendors for NEW holiday market  

Apply to sell one-of-a-kind or handcrafted items from 

a heated outdoor tent in the heart of downtown Newark

This curated market coincides with December performance dates 

to ensure a steady stream of shoppers 

(Newark, N.J. — October 19, 2026) Applications are now open for vendors for the inaugural NJPAC Holiday Market taking place Thursdays through Sundays, December 10 – 20, from 12 – 8PM, and closing at 6PM on Sundays.  

The curated market will be held outdoors in a heated tent on Chambers Plaza — NJPAC’s beautifully redesigned front yard — to attract commuters, students and other passersby. 

The Holiday Market seeks vendors in the following categories: clothing; home goods; jewelry and accessories; art and objects; and unique finds.  Space is limited and special consideration will be given to local makers and those selling interesting or bespoke items. 

The market is intended to support artisans, add value for NJPAC ticket buyers and draw visitors from the tri-state region to downtown Newark for seasonal attractions. The length of the new Holiday Market will offer vendors a temporary storefront and time to deepen relationships with new, and returning, customers.    

Rental fees start at $750 per four-day period (Thursday – Sunday) for a six-by-six foot booth. The application, and additional vendor details, are available at njpac.org/holidaymarket. 

Deadline to apply: November 13, 2026 

Juried vendors will be announced: November 23, 2026
