Downtown D.C.'s annual holiday market returns with more than 100 vendors, live performances, festive foods, cocktails, photo opps, and lots of activities. Wander the stalls with a raclette, a pile of hot cheese and bread, in hand and scoop up all the gifts you have to buy.
Thanksgiving is next week, which means we are finally in the thick of the holiday season. Another clue the year is ticking by?

Here is a roundup of some of the best things to do in Washington, D.C. this weekend.
