This brand-new Vancouver event doubles as a holiday market and music festival.
Connect X-Mas Market & Music Festival is a two-day music festival that will take place at the iconic Vancouver motel turned artist hub, City Centre Artist Lodge, and will bring together Vancouver's food, music, and arts scene.
The hub previously hosted this year's Vancouver Mural Festival which coloured the city with 50 new murals.
On Dec. 3 and 4, the artist lodge will host a studio art sale from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. each day alongside the music festival which will go on from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m.
Locals can peruse over 40 open artist studios of various mediums.
Hosted by Ice Cream Truck Live (keep an eye out for the signature Neapolitan-coloured ice cream truck), the festival will showcase some of the city's most vibrant talent.
There is no admission fee for the open studio art sale and tickets to the music festival will be announced soon.
