’Tis the season to shop for holiday gifts, and the semiannual Sugar Plum Bazaar has all the bases covered. Already a top spot for finding local and one-of-a-kind presents for kids, friends, co-workers and grandparents, the Sugar Plum has doubled in size this year, offering more than eighty pop-up shops in its new home at the McNichols Building.

Along with the usual assortment of vintage furniture, made-in-Colorado clothing, jewelry and holiday decor, this year’s edition also promises more items for men, showcasing local brands such as Cold Mountain Craft, Him Clothing and the Moore Collection.

Although it’s in a bigger space with more vendors, the bazaar is still a well-curated affair. Merchants are chosen not only for their quality goods, but for their well-designed displays and customer service, too. “It’s important to us that the crafters, artisans and businesses treat their customers with care and go out of their way to make the shopping experience be something special,” says event co-founder Jen Carabetta.

Food trucks, two cash bars and screenings of holiday films will round out activities at the Sugar Plum Bazaar, which runs today from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. and tomorrow from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at McNichols, 144 West Colfax Avenue. A suggested donation of $5 to $10 will benefit Colorado Ballet’s outreach programs. For more information, visit sugarplumbazaar.com.
Sat., Nov. 22, 10 a.m.-7 p.m.; Sun., Nov. 23, 10 a.m.-4 p.m., 2014
