Montana's holiday season opens with Holidays Market in East Helena on Nov 6, 2026 and runs through Dec 13, 2026. Of the 12 listed fairs, 5 are in November, and 7 in December. The busiest single day is Saturday, Dec 5, 2026, when 3 fairs run at once.
Billings has the most holiday markets with 7, followed by Missoula (2). Smaller towns often have a single church or school bazaar that draws the whole area, so it is worth checking the full Montana 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.
