Our holiday booklet is sprinkled throughout downtown! Get your copy at Director Park, Pioneer Courthouse Square, Portland Winter Ice Rink, each PDX Pop-Shop and more. Or you can download the digital booklet here.
From November 15 – December 31, explore eight unique shopping locations to get the gifts for all your family and friends this holiday season. From vintage and custom clothing, to locally made hot sauce, unique textiles and ceramics plus much more.
For 15 years, Downtown Portland Clean & Safe has been connecting local makers and small businesses with temporary retail space through the PDX Pop-Up Shops program. This program brings new life to vacant storefronts and gives entrepreneurs a chance to test out owning a brick-and-mortar location while enhancing the vibrancy of downtown Portland.
Throughout the holiday season, Director Park, will be alive with activity! Come drop a letter at Santa’s Mailbox, make a child’s holiday at the Giving Tree, experience snow falls three times a day and relax around a warm and cozy fire. Plus explore and experience the wonderful world of Mike Bennett by visiting his Holiday Gift Shop.
Bundle up and glide into the holiday spirit at the Portland Winter Ice Rink, across from Waterfront Park at the Morrison Bridge! Enjoy skating, cozy up with warm treats, and explore the festive Winter Village.
Tickets at $20 for adults, $10 for kids under 12.
