The Portland Holiday Market returns to the Portland Expo Center for its fifth year on Nov. 6 to 8, 2026, in Halls D and E. The venue sits at 2025 North Expo Road, Portland, Oregon 97217. Hours run 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Friday and Saturday, and 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday.
Those three days are three separate purchases. A show ticket is valid for one day and is not day specific, so any ticket works on whichever day the holder arrives. In-and-out privileges on the same day require a hand stamp from the show lobby. A ticket for a second day comes from the show office in the Hall E lobby.
The hour Sunday gives up
Friday and Saturday hold the floor open for nine hours each. Sunday holds it for eight. Box office sales stop one hour before the end of the show, which puts the last sale at 6 p.m. Friday and Saturday and 5 p.m. Sunday. A Sunday arrival after 5 p.m. buys online through the QR codes posted at the venue.
The show FAQ states that crowds slow in the last two hours. On Sunday that window runs 4 p.m. to 6 p.m.
Noon and three on Sunday
Holiday Ornament Making runs at 12 p.m. and again at 3 p.m., priced at two ornaments for $30, with supplies included. Both sessions require pre-registration through the show booking link.
Every pre-paid workshop fee includes one adult admission to the market, which the schedule values at $14. The noon class therefore costs $30 for two ornaments and one gate entry. Entry alone costs $13 online or $14 at the door.
The other two days price higher. Friday carries a floral candle wreath at 12 p.m. for $55 plus tax and a living terrarium at 3 p.m. for $65 plus tax. Saturday runs three cookie classes at 11 a.m., 12 p.m. and 1:45 p.m. for $46 each. Sunday carries the cheapest workshop of the seven, at $15 an ornament.
Two doors, one gate
Online buyers use the dedicated entrance at Hall D. On-site buyers use the box office entrance at Hall E. General adult admission costs $13 online and $14 at the door. Children 12 and under enter free. The bundle of two tickets plus parking costs $33 and is day specific. Parking runs $15 with a date online or $15 on arrival, and Friday parking is free after 4 p.m.
What the floor holds
Halls D and E carry vendors, concession stands and the Yuletide Lounge. Seating sits in the lounge, at picnic tables along the main aisle, at tables in front of the D Hall concessions and in the connector hall between E and D. No coat check and no bag policy are in force. Shopping carts, wagons and strollers are permitted. ATMs sit on the show floor.
Outside food and beverages are not allowed. Concession stands serve hot and cold meals plus snacks. Pets are barred except service animals. Parking shuttles do not run.
Wheelchair access reaches every hall. The Expo Center keeps complimentary manual wheelchairs at the entry points on a first-come, first-served basis, against a government photo ID or a major credit card as a deposit. All-user restrooms sit in the Halls A, D and E lobbies.
TriMet MAX Yellow Line stops at the Expo Center station, a short walk from the entrance. Bike racks sit beside the MAX stop and outside Halls D and E. Parking costs $15 per car per entry, paid in cash or by major credit card.
The day room
The Dayuse Portland city page carried 19 day-use cards on Oct. 20, 2026. Courtyard Portland North, the show hotel partner at 1231 North Anchor Way, is not among them.
One priced card sits close to the hall. Holiday Inn Express Hotel and Suites Portland Jantzen Beach, 2300 North Hayden Island Drive, carried $96 against a $130 nightly comparison, a 31 percent reduction, with windows of 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and 5 p.m. to 11 p.m. A $6 booking fee sits above the day rate. The property sits 0.72 straight-line miles from the Expo Center address.
The 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. window covers the noon ornament class and the first four hours of the Sunday floor.
An eight-hour Sunday, two ornament sessions and a gate price of $13 fit inside one day room. A visitor who drives pays $15 to park and leaves before the 6 p.m. close or the 5 p.m. box office cutoff, whichever comes first.
