Circle Craft is an artist-run co-operative that has backed Canadian makers since 1974, and its holiday market has drawn craftspeople from across the country for more than five decades. Signatures Shows produces it today. The organizers call it Western Canada's largest craft sale, and some vendors travel from as far as Halifax.
Wednesday to Friday the doors stay open from 10 am to 9 pm. Saturday closes at 7 pm and Sunday at 5. Tickets drop to half price after 5 pm on the three weekday evenings, and kids 12 and under need no ticket at all.
Pick up a readmission pass at the information desk before you leave, and you can come back another day for free. The hall is stroller friendly and fully wheelchair accessible, and the desk lends a few manual wheelchairs. Only certified service animals may enter. Waterfront Station is steps from the door. Signatures Shows acknowledges the unceded, shared traditional territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish) and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.
Worth knowing
- Come after 5 pm on Wednesday, Thursday or Friday for half-price entry and a quieter browse before closing at 9.
- Seniors 65 and over pay half on Thursday 12 November with ID.
