PITTSBURGH — The Peoples Gas Holiday Market returned for a ninth year, though it was reconfigured with social distancing in mind.

The popular pop-up in Market Square opened on Black Friday.

Shoppers like Thomas Einolf were out with a purpose.

“I just wanted to support the local Pittsburgh shops, especially in this time right now,” he said.

In addition to shopping from small-businesses, the Holiday Market will again feature live music on its centerpiece stage, although this year the acts will be reduced in scale to allow for social distancing.

A diverse array of genres and community acts will be featured every lunch time and early evening during the week and all-day on weekends. The market is open until Dec. 23.
