The five-day celebration features more than 125 merchants, Breakfast with Santa and an all-new Tiles & Tinsel Mahjong experience
Holiday shopping is about to get a festive head start in Plano. Neath the Wreath returns to the Plano Event Center Nov. 11–15 for its 31st annual holiday market, bringing more than 125 merchants, seasonal activities and a few new experiences to North Texas.
Hosted by the Junior League of Collin County, this year also coincides with the organization’s 50th anniversary, combining decades of holiday tradition with a mission to support the local community.
Five Days Of Holiday Shopping And Festivities
The celebration begins Nov. 11, with Ladies Night Out, an evening of shopping, dinner, drinks and time with friends before the main market opens. From Nov. 12–15, shoppers can explore more than 125 vendors offering holiday decorations, home accents, clothing, jewelry, accessories, gourmet foods and gifts for all ages.
Families can also enjoy the annual Breakfast with Santa, featuring a holiday breakfast and an opportunity for younger visitors to celebrate with Santa Claus. New for 2026, Neath the Wreath is introducing a Tiles & Tinsel Mahjong experience on November 13, giving guests another way to gather, socialize and enjoy friendly competition—all for a good cause.
This year’s theme, “A Nostalgic Christmas,” celebrates familiar holiday traditions and the memories that bring families and friends together.
“The holiday season has always held a special place in my heart — a time when the magic of coming together reminds us what matters most,” Courtney Monroe, the 2026 Neath the Wreath chair, said in an official statement.

Celebrating 50 Years Of Community Impact
Beyond the shopping and holiday activities, Neath the Wreath serves as one of the Junior League of Collin County’s signature fundraising events. Over its 31-year history, the market has raised more than $6.1 million to support community initiatives throughout Collin County.
The 2026 celebration holds additional significance as the organization marks 50 years of volunteer service and community involvement in Collin County.
“What makes ‘Neath the Wreath ‘so meaningful is that it’s about more than just holiday shopping,” Monroe said. “It’s about the power of community and the impact we can make when we come together.”
Every market ticket purchased helps support the Junior League of Collin County and its work in the community. Neath the Wreath takes place Nov. 11–15 at the Plano Event Center. For tickets, event schedules and additional information, visit the official Neath the Wreath website.
