This market is great. Though the market only opens during the holidays, its a great thing to look forward to. The market serves a variety of good food, even gluten free for my allergic brother. Hot chocolate was given out for free at one of the markets as well. Some of the stands are a bit pricey, but the stuff is usually high quality. The variety of things sold here is great, considering Ive bought presents for all of my family members here.
Best holiday market Ive been to, even better than Bryant Parks! Its more casual and set up in a way that encourages interaction between vendors and customers. Central Park is just beyond the circle. You can see it and the horses, and smell them to! Lots of vendors and many who are one location types of vendors, so this is your only opportunity to see them. A very friendly atmosphere. Well worth the visit!
Interesting holiday market with a variety of art, cosmetics, jewelry, food and other specialities.
Got a beautiful hand stitched ornament and blown glass cruets which were gorgeous and well priced. Many things at different stations were very pricey. It was raining when I went, wish there were more spaces to duck out of rain. They had mulled wine, cider and hot chocolates
This market is becoming slightly dated. Having been coming here now for about 7 years or so, its the same vendors over and over again. The high star rating is because the vendors are all top notch, and if its your first time visiting then by all means definitely check it out. A large percentage of the vendors are jewelers FYI. The expanding food court and addition of alcohol is definitely a boost to this holiday staple.
Overrated. I love a good Christmas market, but was hoping for more ready-made things to eat. The spaces were super compact. I had to hold my kids hands so tight so they didnt get lost among the adults we were brushing shoulders with constantly. It seemed like the management could have left a few more feet between the tents.
I absolutely love this MARKET!!! I have been going for 5 years just to see the buy the most Unique Gifts you cannot find or buy anywhere else!!! Online shopping does Not compare to the Fabulous gifts and experience you will receive at the Columbus Circle Holiday Market 💖💖💖 Check out the Gourmet Garlic Greater for sure, the demonstration is worth the wait🖒
Lots of unique, handmade items. Fun and lively. Awesome local food served along with hot spiked cider/Gluwein! Very crowded and no public restrooms unless you walk to Central Park playground.
So cosy and warm around the holidays. I love walking through the markets, grabbing some food and hot chocolate and walking around the park. Highly recommend. It’s super busy of course, but it makes up for that in charm.
A good collection of hand made crafts and chocolates. But number of shops are few. Crowded and cramped place. It is beautifully decorated. Located right outside central park in Columbus circle.
Wonderful place to walk around and bring in the holiday cheer. features local businesses and holiday food / craft. folks in a good mood, exploring with friends and family, speakng languages from all over the world. only downside is that because space is limited (seems much smaller than one in union square), crowds can make it a bit tight to walk around, but bring a smile and have some perogies, and everything will work out okay. closes on Christmas Eve.
A holiday favorite. Me and my fiance always come here around the holidays. Mainly for the food. But there is some awesome, awesome stuff there. Definitely a nice thing to do while spending a holiday afternoon/night in NYC
I always love the holiday markets here, and Columbus Circle Holiday Market is no exception. Great little Christmas knick-knacks sold here, PLUS some excellent food/hot chocolate places. A little pricey, but thats not really unusual.
CCHM is really solid -- great diversity in stores and selection with a good balance of food stalls, clothing, and trinkets. It was buzzy but not overwhelmingly crowded on Christmas Eve. Only complaint is alcoholic gluhwine costs $7+!!! I know this isnt Europe where its usually €1-2 but still, highway robbery.Budget 1 hour for the market, 2 if youre a lingerer.
Really awesome holiday market on the threshold of central Park.Something for everyone including stocking stuffers, chocolates, knic knacks and glorious hot chocolate.It all adds to the ambiance of Xmas in NYC.
This was the first time we ever went here. Was a cute Holiday Market. Lots of vendors, food to eat. And if I remember correctly they had music playing in the background as well.
A combo of locally made goods with some lower quality stuff. Rows were chaotically arranged, which made it difficult to see what youve already covered. Still, some unique things make it worth a trip if youre nearby.
Every year, I think, Oh! I should go to a holiday market! The result never changes: I am always put off by the crowds. As far as holiday markets go, the Columbus Circle one is pretty average.
This is a flea market in the middle of New York City. Many of the vendors had very reasonable prices. I like the spices market that was outside. It offered many different many hard to find items.
Painted by Colin Campbell Cooper (1856-1937). This is the earlier of two paintings Cooper did of Columbus Circle, 15 years apart. This shows more of a seething stew of a city, shortly after the Circle was completed. This was a time when church towers might be the most imposing structure around, laundry could be seen drying atop buildings and several modes of conveyance are able to past one another without difficulty. The view from further north, at ground level and fifteen years later, is distinctly more modern.
Beutiful view and entry to the Central Park of NY
It was only okay because Ive been to the others around and it is basically the same. I give them all 3 stars for that reason. All the booths are so unique, they all end up being just like each other.
Ive been at Giovanni Rana restaurant, and it is a marvelous place, very good food quality, full Italian taste, very gentle and passionate employees, at an incredible quality-cost ratio. If you are nearby dont miss it!
Has many of the same vendors as Bryant Park and Union Square, so if youve been to the other two, not much point going to this one, esp since Union Square has a greater number of unique vendors.
Great Christmas holiday market across the street from the famous Time Warner Center. A wide variety of small vendors selling lots of neat gifts for Christmas.
Great selection of vendors, very very similar to the other holiday shop pop-ups in Bryant Park or Union Square, except this one has fewer vendors and is less crowded usually.
Holiday time is the best, shops, people, area are great. Visit rock store for great led mood. Womans name is Red she is awsome.
Nice place,even if not so big and different from the european market . Its good to drink something hot in a holiday atmospere during the cold days
Much smaller than years past. Go to Bryant park.
Best holiday market. Better vendor mix than Union Square, many more vendors than Bryant Park. Good food court.
Great holdiy market, but not as good as the one at Bryant Park. Found some nice artwork here though, so I think its worth a visit.
2016 was probably the most disappointing year Ive had at the holiday market. Im not sure what was different this year but I was unimpressed with the vendors. Perhaps next year will be better.
I go every year. They always fresh on their goodies and then you always got the regulars. Love going to Them.
Lots of impulse buying during the holidays. Unfortunately you dont always get great deals. Compare prices online before you make that purchgase. I like this market more than the one at Union Square.
By far the BEST PART of Christmas in NYC!!! I come up from DC whenever I can to shop all the artisans and delicious food!
Great place for gifts and food. The outdoor market is divided into 3 sections: A and C are items and B is food.
Hands down the best Holliday Market in NYC
OK Christmas Market not the best but ok
So many things to look at for some last minute Christmas shopping. There is also a little food court the further into the market you go. Its the most crowded part of the market, of course.
Lots of variety, great selection of unique, high-quality gifts. Great food options too!
Nice market in the city. Not a great area to walk through if youre in a hurry, its always packed!
Kind of crowded but good art for sale. Got a nice painting and a framed miniature plates piece.
Love, love, love this market! I only wish that it would start earlier and last longer so that I could continue to partake of the magic!
Very pleasant market. Nice shops filled with great people
Really nice and large holiday market. A lot of diverse things to choose from.
Lovely Bazaar feel to it and it feels like it had more choices than Bryant park
Unfortunately closed while we visited during Thanksgiving week. Wish we could have experienced this!
Fun stalls. Festive

Smaller, more personable Christmas market where people remember you from year to year...great time every year.
Took a pic with krampus last year, but I forgotten to turn the flash on
The best hot chocolate! All vendors are friendly!
Great market with lots of vendors and food sellers
Great holiday market. Be sure to check out Karen Curtis!
Went to check out shops and was blown away with the quality that one of the vendors (FH Wadsworth) had.
Exactly what you’d hope and expect for an outdoor Christmas market!

Few stalls, 2 or 3 for food and 2 for drinks. Maybe with the coronavirus this is now smaller, I dont know how it was before, but I expected something bigger. Great hot cider !!
Beautiful place. If you come to New York you must pass!
Beautiful tribute. Very nice sculpture.
A small market in winter
English / PortuguêsI went to the market twice during my trip, and I just love what you can find there. Very charmingI visited the market twice during my trip, and simply loved what I found there. Super charming.
Very disappointed that it closes early
Beautiful place, but the queues at the supermarket tire. Plus, what I was looking for was not found. Probably I will look for another deli.
Don Coffee! Authentic Colombian, very good coffee, look at the corner of Central Park with Columbus behind golden statue!
In celebration of the holiday season, markets are held in various places, and the products are almost the same...the price is high...
Several floors to buy everything! And at the last, a restaurant bar with a spectacular view of Central Park
I was at the place, but there was no fair on the day.
Very cool! Relatively big, definitely visit!
Must visit in winter! ❤️ Must visit in the winter
All things are hand made, very original and good food
Yes, but
Nice details to give away.
👍🏻😃
It would be nice to visit
Worth knowing
Very picturesque.
Genial
Beautiful place
I loved

2021-12-31Sooo pretty! Its a wonderful and festive market. The stores are usually the same as union square market. Brings great Holiday cheer. Has some food stalls as well. You can find decor, clothing, jewellery, eco products, sauces/oils, etc. They may be expensive so it is good to also go to the stores website to check the items, unless you are doing last minute shopping.
Review №2
2019-12-14Busy and small stalls cramped into a tiny location. But great jewlery, this year cute photo spot. Not as friendly as Bryant park market but like it nevertheless. You have to go through it to get to the park. A bit over priced but ok for the atmosphere and gifts.
Review №3
2021-12-06A short market open during the season, I walked through with few expectations and came away with quite a few perfect gifts for various family members. The assortment of stalls and variety of products for sale provides a unique place to pick up some small items.

2019-05-21Best outdoor market at Christmas time! Get a hot chocolate from the No Chewing Allowed shop and walk around the cozy winter setting. Central Park is right there too. Shopping is all around the immediate area. Great gifts of nice quality. This is the best hot chocolate I have ever tasted by the way!

2019-12-29Ive worked at this market for 4 consecutive years and it is always a treat to meet and see all sorts of people. A lot of the vendors are really kind and many of the products throughout the booths are handmade and or locally made. a great way to get gift ideas when you are wrapping up shopping
