Boston's Snowport Announces Launch Date For 2025

BOSTON, MA — Boston's Seaport will amp up the winter holiday spirit this year with the return of Snowport.

On Monday, officials announced the Snowport Holiday Market will return on Nov. 7 for its fifth season. The annual Light Up Seaport tree lighting is scheduled for Dec. 5 at 6 p.m.

This year, the Holiday Market will showcase over 130 local small businesses, many of which are minority and female-founded, officials said.

"With over one-third of the makers from Boston, and many more from across Massachusetts and New England, this market proudly champions local entrepreneurs, makers, and craft and independent businesses," officials said.

In addition to the line-up of makers, the Snowport Holiday Market will feature several new and returning experiences such as the Winter Wish Wall by Mass General Brigham Health Plan, The Warming Tent by JetBlue, The Stage by Mohegan Sun, The Crafting Corner by The LEGO Group and Presents Place.

Constant Contact will return as presenting sponsor for the fourth year.

Also returning for this year’s market is the Snowport Scholarship Program, a joint initiative between Constant Contact and Boston Seaport by WS "designed to elevate underserved entrepreneurs."

Twelve small businesses will receive financial support, marketing education and more thanks to the program.

The recipients are:

• African Authentics

• Creation Jute
• Element Oasis
• Gp Organics Soulcare
