Michigan's holiday season opens with Pineview Craft Show in Ypsilanti on Nov 7, 2026 and runs through Dec 6, 2026. Of the 10 listed fairs, 8 are in November, and 2 in December.
Detroit has the most holiday markets with 2, followed by Ferndale (2) and Royal Oak (2). Smaller towns often have a single church or school bazaar that draws the whole area, so it is worth checking the full Michigan list for anything scheduled before Nov 7, 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.
