Holiday Square Market Brings Winter Village Atmosphere to Journal Square

Mangolia Landing is transforming into a winter wonderland this holiday season as KRE Group presents the Holiday Square Market.

Held every Wednesday to Sunday now through Dec. 28th, the Holiday Square Market is a New York City-style holiday market with decorations, festive stalls and a curated lineup of food and merchant vendors. Guests can enjoy seasonal treats and culinary delights while shopping for unique toys, crafts, jewelry and other stocking stuffers.

The Holiday Square Market is produced by Festive Planet, with holiday stalls by Cabaret Tent, and staffing, site support and resources provided by Commercial District Services through the Journal Square Special Improvement District. Hours are 3 to 8 p.m. Wednesday through Friday and noon to 8 p.m. on weekends and holidays. The location is right outside of the entrance to Journal Squared, easily accessible from the Journal Square PATH station.

KRE Group will host a Holiday tree lighting at the market on Dec. 4th. The event is open to the public. Guests will sip free hot cocoa, enjoy holiday music and watch as Magnolia Landing is illuminated in magical colors. The festivities begin at 5 p.m. and the tree lighting will take place at 6 p.m.

“The Holiday Square Market is the type of event we love to host at Magnolia Landing,” said Jonathan Kushner, President of KRE Group. “It highlights not only the holiday spirit, but also the spirit of our community. We invite everyone to come celebrate a season full of good cheer and good friends, and to make some memories with us right here in Journal Square.”

“We’re thrilled to partner with KRE Group on the Holiday Square Market and support their continued investment in Journal Square,” added Chris Bernardo, Executive Director of the Journal Square Special Improvement District. “The activation of Magnolia Landing is a great example of how place management organizations, like the Journal Square SID can collaborate with the development community to deliver meaningful community programming that boosts foot traffic for business owners while creating a festive gathering place for residents.”
