“Winter Wanderland”
Holiday Market in Hallidie Plaza
Presented by The Union Square Alliance
WHAT:
Winter Wanderland in Union Square, the first holiday market for Union Square, turns Hallidie Plaza into a shining fairytale land. Local, handmade gifts, holiday tree decorations, sweets and warming drinks await as well as live entertainment, Santa’s Workshop and DIY crafts for kids and adults alike. Come celebrate and gather in our holiday market.
The holiday market, alongside the Safeway Holiday Ice Rink in Union Square, Macy’s Holiday Tree and the Bill Graham Menorah, will be the foundation of the Union Square Alliance’s holiday campaign. Winter Wanderland in Union Square will be linked together by magical illuminations to encourage visitors an enchanting exploration throughout the district. Winter Wanderland in Union Square will illuminate the area and awaken the senses from twinkling lights and gentle snowfall to holiday carols, warm candied nuts, and hot cocoa. Guests will wander in awe, relax to the sounds of San Francisco’s finest entertainment and marvel at the variety of arts and crafts only San Francisco has to offer.
The holiday market is a pilot collaboration between Willy Bietak Productions, owner and operator of The Safeway Holiday Ice Rink in Union Square and the Union Square Alliance. Hallidie Plaza is a public square located at the entrance to Powell Street Station on Market Street in the Union Square area of downtown San Francisco.
