Holiday Markets and Festivals Planned in Three Cities

Several free-admission food and holiday events are planned for late 2026. Foodees Fest is scheduled for Dec. 4–6 in Midland, Texas, with food vendors and crafts, plus a daily meal-voucher raffle. Burnaby Village Museum’s Festive Village will run Nov. 25 through Jan. 3, 2027, with seasonal entertainment, activities, lights and food; visitors are advised to plan ahead because entry may be limited. In Evanston, the Great Chicago Holiday Food Festival will run Nov. 27–Dec. 27 at the Village at New Ryan Field, featuring menus from Chicago chefs, a 24-artisan gift market and a holiday light garden, with food and drinks sold separately.
