The City of Moncton is proud to introduce Aura: A Moncton Holiday Experience. For three enchanting Thursday evenings – Dec. 5, 12, and 19 – from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m., the Moncton Market will be transformed into a festive wonderland filled with joy, warmth, and holiday cheer.

Residents and visitors can immerse themselves in the warm glow of Aura, where the spirit of the season comes alive. Here’s what awaits:

  • Festive drinks and cocktail classes: Enjoy special holiday cocktails crafted by BRIX Experience, available for purchase, or join a cocktail-making class in the Culinary Centre at the Moncton Market.
  • Shopping with local vendors: Discover unique holiday treasures from your favourite market vendors and new artisans – perfect for finding one-of-a-kind gifts for loved ones.
  • Live entertainment: Delight in classic holiday movies projected outdoors, festive carolers filling Festival Hall with song, and live performances on the outdoor stage by cozy fire pits.
  • Photo opportunities: Capture memorable moments at the Aura photo op – ideal for sharing with friends and family.
  • Gift-wrapping for a cause: Support Crossroads for Women with on-site gift-wrapping for donations, helping women and children in need this holiday season.

The organizing committee, in partnership with the City of Moncton, has thoughtfully curated this magical experience to capture the heart of the holiday season and ensure fun and excitement for all ages.

“The name ‘Aura’ reflects the spirit of warmth, togetherness, and positive energy we want to share with the community this holiday season. Just as an aura radiates light and vibrancy, this event is designed to uplift everyone who attends and create a positive atmosphere filled with joy and connection,” says Pierre Babineau, a member of the organizing committee.

The City of Moncton would like to thank the Aura partners and sponsors for their generous support: Downtown Moncton Centre-ville Inc., the Province of New Brunswick, Peach Marketing (marketing partner), SSI Audio, BRIX Experience, and Crossroads for Women.
