Mark December 14 and 21 on your calendar -- Get Your PHX and Phoenix Public Market are hosting Phoestivus for the rest (or all) of us who need to get a little local gift shopping accomplished in the company of local food vendors and live music.
This year's market will be the second Phoestivus, which will take over the Downtown Phoenix Public Market parking lot at 14 E. Pierce St.
The festivities go from 4 to 8:30 p.m., and you can keep an eye out for the Phoestivus pole, an airing of grievances, feats of strength, holiday carolers, and more.
Organizers are still accepting applications for vendors online. Check out the Public Market website and stay tuned for more information.
