There’s no place like local for the holidays!

The holiday season is here, and there's no better way to support our vibrant community than by shopping locally. Small businesses are the backbone of our local economies and makeup 90% of York Region’s companies. These businesses provide a diverse range of shops catering to all ages and stages of life.

Local retailers are excited to welcome you and are working diligently to ensure you have a comfortable and enjoyable shopping experience this holiday season.

We’re encouraging residents to support local businesses when considering their shopping and dining needs.
