The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke L. Rollins have announced the launch of the Great American Christmas Market. This two-day holiday celebration is scheduled to take place on the National Mall on December 2 and 3, 2026.

The market will feature American-grown Christmas trees, wreaths, food, and gifts. This initiative is positioned as the final chapter of the USDA's year-long commemoration of America's 250th anniversary.
