Oakville celebrates Christmas in so many ways from Tree Lighting Ceremonies, incredible light displays, the Santa Claus Parade, and Christmas Bazaars. Church Christmas sales is a time honoured tradition around Canada, and Oakville is no exception.
So what makes Christmas markets at local churches so much fun. It is one of the few places where members of the community still proudly sell their homemade baked goods, delicious jams, and hand crafted gifts. Then instead of pocketing the proceeds they donate them. Some of the funds go back into the operating funds for the church, and some go to the special projects that help people in need.
Here are several of the Christmas Bazaars happening in Oakville this season:
Enjoy the wonderful array of tasty treats and homemade gift items, while you are supporting your local community. Each week until Christmas OakvilleNews.Org's Events listings will have the most comprehensive Oakville Holiday Happenings to ensure that you can have a delightful time. You can check the events listings for Christmas by going to Events Search, click the advance search button, and under categories click Christmas and you'll find everything you need.
