The holiday shopping season is here, and some of the best gifts can be found right here at home. Shopping locally keeps dollars in our community and supports the small businesses that make our towns special.

Christmas in Cleburne Market Expo

Saturday, November 14 at the Cleburne Conference Center. Now in its fifth year, the Market Expo brings together vendors, handmade gifts and holiday decor under one roof.

Old Town Burleson

Old Town's boutiques, gift shops and coffee spots are an easy way to knock out your list. Pair your shopping with lunch, and keep an eye on the plaza calendar for holiday markets and events in December.

Historic Granbury Square

The shops around the historic courthouse square are a holiday favorite, and the square is especially festive after the Night of Lights Christmas Parade on Friday, November 27.

Downtown Cleburne

Downtown Cleburne's shops are a great stop, especially once the Whistle Stop Christmas lights go up starting November 23.

Small Business Saturday

Small Business Saturday falls on November 28 this year, the Saturday after Thanksgiving. It's a great day to visit your favorite local shops.

Event details can change. Please confirm with organizers before you go.
