Holiday Farmers Market 2026: A Little Local Magic for the Season
Warm drinks, festive music, and a whole lot of local love: our Holiday Farmers Market is coming back! Join us on Saturday, December 12th, from 9 AM–4 PM in the Indoor Arena at the Douglas County Fairgrounds for a beloved Lawrence tradition.
With over 55 of our regular season local vendors, there will be plenty to fill your shopping bags, your deep freezer, your holiday table, and maybe a stocking or two. Stay tuned for our Vendor lineup!
Local Gifts, Made with Care
Our Holiday Market gives you a chance to see another side of the farmers and makers you visit throughout the season. Alongside local food, you’ll find handmade crafts, gift baskets, and thoughtful gifts for the people on your list.
Take your time exploring the booths, chatting with vendors, and finding something that feels just right. Whether you’re shopping for someone who loves good food, looking for a handmade treasure, or picking out a little something for yourself, there’s plenty to discover.
Every purchase supports the local people who grew, made, or prepared what you’re bringing home. That’s a pretty good reason to keep your holiday shopping close to home!
Come Hungry and Stay Awhile
Holiday shopping deserves a snack break. Hot food and drinks will be available, so grab something delicious and make a day of it! Meet a friend, bring the family, and enjoy a little time together amid the bustle of the season. Regular market favorites and seasonal specialties will be available to nosh on while you shop or relax indoors.
Stock up on local food for holiday gatherings, winter meals, and the treats you look forward to making every year.
Festive Fun for the Family
It wouldn’t be the Holiday Market without a little extra cheer! San Dee Claus will be joining us, and live festive entertainment will help put everyone in the holiday spirit.
Come for the gifts, stay for the music, and enjoy seeing familiar Market faces before the year comes to a close. Follow our Facebook event for the entertainment schedule.
Cozy Up Indoors
