Every December, the sleepy town in Clear Creek County transforms into a sparkling Christmas wonderland. For two weekends, Georgetown, Colorado, hosts their annual Christmas Market, now in its 65th year. USA Today recently named it as part of its 10 Best Holiday Markets in the country.
It’s a bustling time of year in Clear Creek County, host to old-time holiday traditions. Roasted chestnuts, festive shopping, and horse-drawn wagon rides all await you in historic Georgetown.
The main Old World Christmas Market is held over two weekends, Saturday and Sunday, December 6th to 7th and 13th to 14th, 2025. All days run from 10 am to 5 pm.
Colorado’s Georgetown Christmas Market
Experience Christmas the way it was 100 years ago in the Old West at Georgetown Christmas Market. Saint Nicholas attends in traditional dress, as do Victorian carolers and dancers. There is a daily procession of the Santa Lucia, a traditional Neapolitan song.
6th Street in historic downtown is lined with twinkling lights, holiday wreaths, and hopefully, covered with snow. The Christmas Market has been a special family gathering spot for generations, so consider making it an annual tradition for you this season.
This outdoor European market has free admission and plenty of holiday entertainment. Enjoy roasted chestnuts
