Small Business Saturday Downtown Mount Vernon 2026

Small Business Saturday is a fan-favorite holiday in independent shops around the country. The Saturday after Thanksgiving shops are filled with excited shoppers showing their love for small business. It's a day to support small shops, to pour into independent retailers, makers, and downtown main streets. For many brick-and-mortar shops it's one of our biggest sales days of the year! Grab a friend, head to Downtown Mount Vernon and shop for unique gifts, eats, and experiences. Our Downtown is something special- let's show shops the love this Small Business Saturday!
