You’ve experienced holiday cheer in the form of a holiday market at Bryant Park, but now Brooklyn wants in with its own version of winter magic. This December, Bk Backyard in Williamsburg is transforming into the Williamsburg Winter Village, a brand-new seasonal destination packed with cozy vibes, local flavor and festive energy.
Every Friday through Sunday in December, the outdoor venue at 151 Banker Street will turn into a holiday playground where you can shop, snack and soak up the spirit of the season. There will be twinkling lights, bustling vendor stalls, the smell of roasted treats in the air and plenty of Brooklyn attitude to keep it cool.
The Holiday Market at the heart of the village will feature a curated mix of local makers and indie brands offering everything from handmade candles and jewelry to artisan snacks and quirky stocking stuffers. Forget big-box shopping: this is your chance to find gifts that will make an impression.
Food is always the main event in Williamsburg so, although the official culinary lineup is still under wraps, expect a mix of NYC’s best pop-up food vendors serving sweet and savory bites with creative twists made for cold weather.
Aside from seasonal bites and gift foraging, you’ll find plenty to keep the festive spirit alive. Live events and performances (also TBD) will roll through every weekend, from local musicians and DJs to family-friendly entertainment.
Williamsburg Winter Village is set to do the holidays Brooklyn style. The vibe will be laid-back but lively; the kind of place where you can grab a spiked cider, chat with makers about their crafts or huddle by a heat lamp to take in the scene.
Tickets are $11.50 per person, and you’ll want to snag them early once the buzz hits.
