Mississippi's holiday season opens with Mistletoe Marketplace in Jackson on Nov 4, 2026 and runs through Dec 19, 2026. Of the 18 listed fairs, 11 are in November, and 7 in December. The busiest single day is Saturday, Nov 7, 2026, when 3 fairs run at once.
Jackson has the most holiday markets with 5, followed by Ocean Springs (2). Smaller towns often have a single church or school bazaar that draws the whole area, so it is worth checking the full Mississippi list for anything scheduled before Nov 4, 2026 or after Christmas.
