The Fort Bend Junior Service League is proud to announce the 25th anniversary of its beloved annual Sugar Plum Market. The holiday‑time celebration runs Nov. 4‑7 and will showcase more than 100 vendors offering gifts, décor, fashion, and gourmet treats for the season.
Preview night kicks off the festivities
Fans can get an early look at the market’s offerings during a preview night on Nov. 4. The evening will give shoppers a first glimpse of the handcrafted items, seasonal decorations, and specialty foods that vendors will present over the four‑day event.
A quarter‑century of community impact
Since its inception in 2001, the Sugar Plum Market has become a staple of Fort Bend County’s holiday traditions. Over the past 25 years the market has raised more than $5 million for nonprofit organizations throughout the county, supporting everything from youth programs to senior services.
What to expect from the vendors
Visitors will find a wide variety of merchandise, including locally‑made jewelry, artisanal candles, custom‑crafted holiday ornaments, and seasonal fashion accessories. Food lovers can sample gourmet treats such as hand‑rolled pastries, specialty chocolates, and hot beverages from regional bakers and coffee roasters.
Supporting local nonprofits
All proceeds from vendor booth fees and sales go directly to the Fort Bend Junior Service League’s charitable initiatives. The league distributes the funds to a network of nonprofit partners that provide essential services to families, seniors, and children across the county.
How to get involved
Vendors interested in participating can apply through the league’s website, and volunteers are welcome to help with set‑up, crowd control, and clean‑up. The league encourages community members to donate time, resources, or monetary gifts to ensure the market’s continued success.
Plan your visit
The market will be held at the Fort Bend County Fairgrounds, with ample parking and family‑friendly amenities. Attendees are advised to bring reusable bags for purchases and to check the league’s social‑media channels for any last‑minute updates or weather‑related changes.
Mark your calendar, invite friends and family, and join the Fort Bend Junior Service League in celebrating a quarter‑century of holiday spirit, local entrepreneurship, and charitable giving.
