Troutbeck Returns With Its Annual Holiday Bazaar in New York’s Hudson Valley

A Curated Weekend Celebration of Craftsmanship, Boutique Fashion, and Seasonal Indulgence

Matthew Kennedy

Troutbeck ushers in the festive season with the return of its Holiday Bazaar, a two-day celebration dedicated to thoughtful craftsmanship, elevated design, and independent makers. Held December 6 and 7, 2025, the gathering transforms the historic property into a holiday marketplace showcasing an artful mix of favorite shops, local artisans, jewelers, and boutique fashion houses. Toys, flowers, tabletop treasures, and giftable curiosities round out the experience, creating a setting rooted in understated luxury and community spirit.

This annual tradition has become a hallmark of the Troutbeck lifestyle. Rather than a hurried shopping fair, the Holiday Bazaar feels more akin to a gathering of creatives; a place where conversation flows, pieces feel personal, and guests experience the joy of gift-giving in its most intentional form.

Dates, Setting, and Guest Access

The Bazaar unfolds across Troutbeck’s Manor House and Ballroom. Public hours run Saturday, December 6 from 11:00AM to 4:00PM, and Sunday, December 7 from 10:00AM to 2:00PM. Hotel guests and Troutbeck Members receive early access on Saturday beginning at 10:00AM, along with priority for dining reservations. Attendance is complimentary with RSVP, reinforcing the feeling of an open-door celebration centered on discovery.

Throughout the weekend, gift wrapping joins seasonal bites, warm drinks, and an engaging children’s program featuring hands-on activities and outdoor play. Families, collectors, and design-minded shoppers will find themselves at ease wandering room to room, each space presenting a fresh perspective on beauty and craft.

A Thoughtful Experience Rooted in Seasonal Joy

The Bazaar embodies a sophisticated holiday mood without pretense. The Manor House and Ballroom become a tapestry of texture: hand-thrown ceramics, refined womenswear, floral creations, wooden toys, silk pieces that feel heirloom-worthy, and modern home objects ready for seasonal tables. Conversations unfold with the makers themselves, adding intimacy and insight to each purchase.

Families can make a day of it, with outdoor activities complementing the children’s program. Shoppers may linger over a glass of wine, explore the grounds, or take advantage of early dining access for a leisurely lunch.
