Looking for unique, local gifts for the loved ones on your list? How about a festive experience that will lift your spirits with a hefty dose of holiday magic?

Enter: The Greenville Convention Center’s annual Holiday Fair, coming up Thursday, Dec. 4, through Sunday, Dec. 7 — and yes, Sunday is a brand-new addition this year. That means one extra day to shop, explore, and soak in the season’s best local makers, treats, and cheer.

Benefiting the philanthropic arm of the Rotary Club of Greenville, this cherished Upstate tradition helps make meaningful, sustained differences in the quality of life of local citizens. Expected to attract thousands of local and out-of-town visitors, this year’s Holiday Fair has been extended an extra day, promising the return of crowd-favorite traditions and plenty of new offerings.
