Coquitlam Christmas Night Market at Lights at LaFarge

Coquitlam Christmas Night Market

The Coquitlam Christmas Night Market is a winter holiday artisan market at the Evergreen Cultural Centre by the Lights at LaFarge event in Town Centre Park.

With close to 50 vendors, it’s a great event. Up until last year it has been just a one or two-day affair. More recently, however, the market takes place on two different weekends. In 2025 the event happens on December 12th and 13th and again then on the 20th. The first day of the season for Lights at LaFarge, meanwhile, is on Friday, November 28th.

Christmas Night Market in Coquitlam

Lights at LaFarge is one of Metro Vancouver’s best Christmas lights attractions. It’s free to attend and features beautiful Christmas illuminations around the landmark lake. The attraction runs from late November until around mid-February each year.

The Coquitlam Christmas Night Market is an artisan craft fair that has been running for a number of years. It’s a good-sized craft fair. As many as 50 vendors participate. It’s a really nice market, both for the quality of the participating vendors and for the location.

If you plan to visit Lights at LaFarge, which you should, a great day to do so is when the Coquitlam Christmas Night Market takes place (especially if you haven’t yet finished your Christmas shopping).

About the Night Market

The Coquitlam Christmas Night Market is a fairly typical, high-quality, holiday craft fair, except that it’s at night and there is an amazing free winter holiday light attraction right outside. The market itself features really nice products. If you like craft fairs and Christmas lights, you’ll love this event.

Artisan products at the market typically include jewellery, toys, apparel and accessories, health and beauty products, gourmet chocolates, and other handmade creations. Hot drinks are also available for sale.

The market is a perfect place to do last-minute holiday shopping. In addition, a walk around LaFarge Lake is a fine way to get into a festive spirit while doing light exercise at the same time. Checking out both the lights and the market on the same day is guaranteed to put you in the Christmas mood.

The Coquitlam Christmas Night Market is a family-friendly event, and it’s wheelchair-accessible too (as is the Lights at LaFarge Christmas attraction). Both are highly recommended. Expect there to be lots of people.
