A day filled with shopping, food, and fun is the perfect way to celebrate your mom this Mother’s Day.
The Mother’s Day Market will take place from 11 am to 4 pm at Airdrie City Hall on May 10.
“Shop, sip and celebrate! We have something for everyone, whether you’re looking for a gift for mom or just want an afternoon out with the family,” says Kellie Carter, organizer of the event.
“There will also be interactive games throughout the market.”
Treat your mom to a special gift from one of the many vendors offering unique items. From handmade crafts to delicious treats, you’ll find the perfect present for the special woman in your life.
“We have a variety of vendors selling their handmade and homemade products; jewelry, baked goods, sublimation, woodworking, home décor, pets treats and accessories, crochet and knitting, one-of-a-kind art, bath and body products, candles, and a craft table for the kids,” says Carter.
There is expected to be 43 vendors attending plus food trucks and live music. “We will have food trucks, which offer delicious poutine, corn dogs and rice bowls, and a treat truck serving shaved ice, mini donuts and gourmet pretzels,” says Carter.
“Don’t miss the face painting, gift basket giveaway and live music. Our market is more than just shopping, it’s an experience. We create a warm community vibe that includes interactive games, entertainment, and giveaways.”
There will also be a young entrepreneur onsite taking part in activities with the kids.
She adds that although Kellie Carter Events has never hosted a Mother’s Day Market before, about 800 people attended their July Night Market last year and she hopes to see that many and more on May 10.
