The Fort Bend Junior Service League’s Sugar Plum Market is excitedly preparing for the holiday season. What fun it will be to raise money for Fort Bend County’s charitable organizations, which provide for those most in need. Since its inception in 2001, the Fort Bend Junior Service League (FBJSL) has found purpose in giving back to our community. Through funds raised at the popular holiday shopping event, the Sugar Plum Market has donated an impressive amount of nearly $2.5 million to various Fort Bend County charities. Those grants have and will continue to bring joy into the lives of so many in need.

Presented by FBJSL and Memorial Hermann Sugar Land Hospital, the 18th Annual Market will take place at the Stafford Centre Performing Arts Theatre and Convention Center Friday, November 2nd and Saturday, November 3rd. Market hours will be from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Friday, and from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday. A special Preview Night shopping event will be held Thursday, November 1st from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. Unique vendors from across Texas will fill the Stafford Centre for this ultimate one-stop holiday shopping extravaganza.

General Admission tickets for Friday or Saturday are $12 each. A limited number of Preview Night tickets are available for $75 each and include an exciting and exclusive experience. Preview Night patrons will be treated to live entertainment, advance shopping Thursday night, a drink ticket, delicious catered hors d’oeuvres, and Market entry Friday and Saturday. Tickets may be purchased online beginning September 1st at www.sugarplummarket.com. Preview Night has consistently been popular, and this year’s Preview Night is certain to be another sensational event.

The Sugar Plum Market would not be able to contribute to charities in the community without the generosity of sponsors and underwriters. A variety of sponsorship and underwriting opportunities are offered for both businesses and individuals, with specially tailored packages available to be customized to best fit marketing and return on investment needs. Sugar Plum Market sponsors receive incredible marketing benefits, with some packages including social media posts, Facebook Live opportunities, event signage, and website and program recognition. New to the 2018 Market, certain sponsor and underwriting levels gain access to the exclusive Preview Night VIP lounge area.
