Toledo’s International Holiday Market Returns Nov. 20
Toledo’s International Holiday Market returns to Levis Square Park in downtown Toledo on Friday, Nov. 20, 2026, opening at 5:00 PM and running Nov. 20-21, 2026. Admission is free.
Modeled on a German Christkindlmarkt, the market brings international foods, handmade gifts and cultural performances to downtown Toledo. Visitors can warm up with Gluhwein served in a warming tent — and pick up a limited-edition holiday mug.
Make a night of it: the market opens the same night as the Promenade Park tree lighting. Mayor Kapszukiewicz lights the tree at 7 PM on Nov. 20, during the tree-lighting event from 5-8 PM.
The Blade reported the market’s return on Nov. 6, 2026.
