Marketplace Events- Omaha Holiday Boutique is a paid advertiser of Omaha Extra!
The Omaha Holiday Boutique returns to the CHI Health Center Omaha’s Convention Center November 14-16, 2025. Building on its first-year success — which welcomed nearly 12,500 shoppers in just three days in 2024 — the event will once again feature more than 200 vendors, many with Nebraska roots. Attendees can look forward to an immersive holiday shopping experience, engaging all their senses to find the perfect gifts for anyone on their list.
“Online shopping is convenient, but it can’t replace the chance to experience gifts first-hand,” says Marc Gary, group manager for the Omaha Holiday Boutique. “Here, you get the same variety under one roof — with the added benefit of tasting dips and spices, touching bags and clothing for quality checks, and hearing the passion from each small business owner.”
New this year, the Holiday Boutique will offer area children the opportunity to stretch their entrepreneurial wings. The Children’s Entrepreneurial Market will open up at the show Sunday, November 16 at 10 a.m. Young business owners, aged 5 to 17, will operate their own booths alongside seasoned vendors, selling a variety of handmade items ranging from slime kits and clay crafts to jewelry and art. Those interested in applying can do so at kidsmarket.com.
“Inspiring the next generation of small business owners and creative spirits is a natural fit for our organization,” says Amber Shaw, marketing manager of Marketplace Events, which organizes the Holiday Boutique. “We believe there's incredible value in teaching young people about business fundamentals while also celebrating their creativity and ambition."
In addition to shopping, the holiday boutique offers a unique, festive experience to jump-start the holiday season. Enjoy live music, seasonal cocktails, hourly giveaways and photo ops with Santa.
Friday night is a chance to ramp up the holiday cheer with exclusive access to the chicest boutiques during Girls Night Out from 5:00 pm to 9:00 pm, hosted by Omaha’s Power 106.9 FM’s Alyssa Siebken, with live music from the station’s iconic DJ Bishop.
