Mistletoe Market Returns to OKC Fair Park for Holiday Shopping and Community Support

The annual Mistletoe Market is at the Bennett Event Center at OKC Fair Park, bringing more than 130 merchants together for a holiday shopping experience that benefits the Junior League of Oklahoma City. The event runs from Nov. 5—8, featuring specialty foods, apparel, gifts, and family-friendly activities.

Holiday shoppers in central Oklahoma have a fresh slate of options as the annual Mistletoe Market fills the Bennett Event Center. The marketplace features an array of local merchants selling unique holiday decorations, clothing, toys, and specialty foods designed to help visitors get a head start on their Christmas lists.

The four-day shopping event kicked off with a Premiere Party on Thursday evening, giving ticket holders aged 21 and older exclusive early access alongside light bites and drinks. Following that opening night, the market transitioned into general admission hours, drawing crowds looking for curated items ranging from women’s boutiques to artisanal foods.

Shop During Weekend Hours with Tiered Ticket Pricing

General shopping hours run Friday and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., concluding on Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Organizers structured ticket pricing to accommodate different scheduling needs, offering walk-up adult admission for $15 and walk-up senior admission for $10, with early bird rates priced slightly lower at $12 for adults and $8 for seniors. Visitors planning multiple trips can purchase a 3-day pass for $25, while children aged 12 and under enter free of charge.

Beyond the retail booths, the schedule features distinct community events. On Saturday morning from 10 a.m. to noon, families can visit with Santa Claus for photos at no additional cost. We have a spectacular lineup, Mistletoe Market Chair Ashley Feeback said, noting that the gathering has over 130 merchants.

Fund Community Projects Through Ticket Sales

While the market serves as a seasonal retail destination, its primary function is fundraising. Proceeds from ticket sales and merchant fees directly support the Junior League of Oklahoma City and its health and wellness-based community projects across the metro area.

The nonprofit organization utilizes the funds to deploy trained volunteers into more than 10 local partner organizations, focusing on leadership development and community service. Junior League of Oklahoma City President Tabitha Narvize said the organization works to make a meaningful impact throughout the Oklahoma City area.
