Indiana's holiday season opens with 2026 Midwest Craft Chocolate Festival in Rushville on Nov 6, 2026 and runs through Dec 19, 2026. Of the 14 listed fairs, 10 are in November, and 4 in December. The busiest single day is Saturday, Nov 14, 2026, when 3 fairs run at once.
Indianapolis has the most holiday markets with 4, followed by Georgetown (2) and Sellersburg (2). Smaller towns often have a single church or school bazaar that draws the whole area, so it is worth checking the full Indiana list for anything scheduled before Nov 6, 2026 or after Christmas.
For vendors, holiday shows are the highest-attendance events of the year and the first to fill. Use the booth ROI calculator to decide which shows are worth the fee.
