One of the most whimsical holiday experiences in Ontario returns this week with a handful of festive vendors, adorable farm animals, a festive train ride, and so much more. Here’s what to know about Neimi’s Christmas Market and its beloved Gnomeville experience.
Starting Nov. 13 and every Friday and Saturday until Dec. 19, 2026, Neimi Family Farm will open its doors for all to join in on its annual Christmas experience.
What’s happening at the farm?
It’s just a short drive away from Toronto, but it’ll feel like you’ve been whisked away to another world full of festive fun.
Its beloved Christmas Market brings together local vendors for some much-needed holiday shopping. Browse the Gnome Gift Shop and find some one-of-a-kind goods.
But that’s not all. The Finnish bakery and cozy bonfires here are enough to convince you to make the trip. This portion of the experience is free to explore.
If you want to fully immerse yourself in the Christmas fun, the ticketed portion of GnomeVille is a must.
According to the farm, your GnomeVille ticket includes a visit with Santa and Mrs. Claus, a festive train ride, farm animals, a magical lit forest path, and the chance to discover the story of the gnome as you explore.
“Bring your little ones on a gnome hunt to find all 26 hidden gnomes, race around on stick horses, and warm up beside cozy bonfires,” they add.
To make your bonfire even cozier, there are s’mores kits and hot chocolates available for purchase.
How much is it?
Admission to the Christmas Market is free, but if you’re planning on attending GnomeVille, you’ll need to purchase tickets.
Time slots can be booked online, with tickets priced at $31.79 for adults, $21.19 for children, or you can get the family package, which includes two adults and two children, for $84.79, plus tax.
