Christmas markets in Omaha
Omaha has no German Christkindlmarkt — its Christmas shopping happens at weekend holiday markets. The big one is the Omaha Farmers Market's Holiday Market in a heated tent at Aksarben Village on the first weekend of December; Midwest Fest fills Heartwood Preserve on three December weekends, and the Holiday Boutique takes over the CHI Health Center in mid-November.
