Applications are now open for the 6th edition of the Skeppend Christmas Market, set to take place at Simonsvlei Wines from 28 November to 21 December 2025. Known as one of the most popular festive markets in the Winelands, this annual event showcases a carefully curated selection of handmade and imported products – just in time for the busy holiday shopping season.
Located in Paarl, right alongside the N1, Simonsvlei offers an accessible and picturesque venue that draws thousands of visitors each year. In response to public demand, this year’s market will run for nearly a month, making it even longer than previous editions.
Skeppend is currently looking for quality-driven local businesses with unique, well-crafted offerings. If you create one-of-a-kind products or import speciality goods with gifting appeal, this is a strong opportunity to connect with a festive, gift-focused audience in a well-established setting.
Over 60% of vendor spots have already been filled, just two months after applications opened — so those interested are encouraged to apply soon to avoid disappointment.
