Join the Krist Kindl Markt in Downtown Cove!
The holiday magic is officially returning to Copperas Cove, and we are on the hunt for the best local vendors, artisans, and food trucks to make this year’s Krist Kindl Markt our most spectacular yet! Transforming downtown into a lively Bavarian-style Christmas village, this beloved community tradition will run from Friday, December 4th, through Sunday, December 6th. Vendor and food truck applications are officially open!
By the Numbers: Why You Want to Be Here!
The Krist Kindl Markt is a massive economic driver designed to support our community, spotlight local vendors, and drive foot traffic directly to our downtown businesses. As a vendor, you will showcase your goods to a captive, festive audience eager to shop local. Our historical attendance metrics provide an incredible platform for your business:
- 15,000+ Total Attendees: A massive, engaged crowd flowing through the festival grounds all weekend long.
- 3,800 Parade Viewers: A packed downtown audience gathering specifically for our signature lighted Christmas parade.
- Community-Wide Livestream: An active broadcast featuring the full parade, ensuring the celebration reaches residents across the entire region even if they cannot attend in person.
What to Expect This Year
While we are keeping some of our biggest surprises tightly under wraps, expect major entertainment and programming announcements in the coming weeks. Alongside the massive crowds and lighted parade, we are rolling out our downtown window decorating contests, finalizing sponsor features, and booking a highly anticipated lineup of live stage performances.
