Looking for Christmas craft fairs and holiday markets on Cape Cod?

Here’s what I’ve confirmed so far for the 2026 holiday season. I’ll keep adding to the list as more organizers announce their plans. So please check back often!

Holiday Craft Fairs & Markets in November

A Different Drummer Holiday Craft Fair

When: Saturday, November 14, 2026; 10 a.m. - 4 p.m.

Where: Monomoy Regional High School, 75 Oak Street, Harwich MA

More Info: A Different Drummer Holiday Craft Fair

Now in its fourth year, this fair has expanded into both the school gym and cafeteria, with more than 60 booths. The 2026 vendor list includes pottery, stained glass, hand-knit mittens, upcycled totes, handcrafted clocks, origami, cookies, Cape-themed art and plenty more.

Upper Cape Tech Arts & Crafts Fair

When: Saturday & Sunday, November 21-22, 2026; 10 a.m. - 3:30 p.m.

Where: Upper Cape Cod Regional Technical School, 220 Sandwich Road, Bourne MA

More Info: Upper Cape Tech Craft Fair

This is one of the biggest fairs on the list. The Upper Cape Tech PTO says about 150 crafters from around New England participate, drawing more than 3,000 shoppers over the weekend. The turnout is big enough that the school even warns about Cape bridge traffic resembling a summer weekend.

Cape Cod Christmas Market

When: Friday-Sunday, November 27-29, 2026; 11 a.m.-2 p.m.

Where: Naukabout Beer Garden at Mashpee Commons, 4 Job’s Fishing Road, Mashpee MA

More Info: Cape Cod Christmas Market

Run by the Mashpee Farmers Market, this outdoor Christmas market takes place all three days of Thanksgiving weekend. That gives you some flexibility if Friday shopping isn’t your thing. Along with the makers and artisans, there’ll be food and holiday entertainment.

Holiday Craft Fairs & Markets in December

Love Local Fest - Holiday Edition

When: Saturday, December 5, 2026; 10 a.m. - 4 p.m.

Where: Hyannis Village Green, 367 Main Street, Hyannis MA

More Info: Love Local Holiday Fest

This is much more than a handful of craft tables. About 120 Cape Cod makers, artists, businesses and food vendors are expected on the Village Green for the 14th annual Holiday Fest.

It also happens during the Hyannis Village Stroll, so there’s plenty more going on beyond the market.

The 204 Holiday Market & Open House

When: Saturday, December 5, 2026; 10 a.m. - 4 p.m.

Where: The 204 Cultural Arts Municipal Building, 204 Sisson Road, Harwich MA

More Info: The 204 Holiday Market & Open House

The 204 holds its Holiday Market & Open House during Christmas in Harwich weekend. This one puts you right inside Harwich’s municipal arts building, home to artist studios and other creative spaces, rather than in a school gym or outdoor market.

Holiday Art & Gift Markets

Not every holiday market happens on one particular weekend.

A few Cape Cod art centers and museums turn part of their gallery space into holiday sales for several weeks, which makes these much easier to fit into your schedule.

Wrap It Up! at Cape Cod Museum of Art

When: November 12, 2026 - January 3, 2027; during the Museum's regular hours

Where: Cape Cod Museum of Art, 60 Hope Lane, Dennis MA

More Info: Cape Cod Museum of Art - Wrap It Up!

This annual holiday show and sale features small works created by Cape Cod Museum of Art members. Unlike a one-day fair, you have nearly two months to catch this one.

Cape Cod Art Center Small Works Show

When: November 16 - December 23, 2026; during the Center's regular hours

Where: Cape Cod Art Center, 3480 Route 6A, Barnstable MA

More Info: Cape Cod Art Center Small Works Show

The Small Works Show is Cape Cod Art Center’s annual holiday sale. Both galleries are filled with work by juried artist members, and participating artists must have passed the Center’s portfolio review.

Creative Arts Center Holiday & Small Works Sale

There’s more than wall art at this members’ sale. The lineup includes small original artwork, jewelry, pottery, knitted and fabric pieces, woven items, hats, mittens and cards.

There’s also a preview party on Thursday, November 19, before the regular sale opens the following morning.

Falmouth Art Center Holiday Market & Gift Gallery

When: November 21-December 24, 2026; during the Center's regular hours

Where: Falmouth Art Center, 137 Gifford Street, Falmouth MA

More Info: Falmouth Art Center Holiday Market & Gift Gallery

This one runs right through Christmas Eve, so it’s a handy option for later-season shopping. The market and gift gallery feature arts and crafts made by Falmouth Art Center members.

Small Works = Big Joy

When: November 21 - December 22, 2026; during the Center's regular hours

Where: Cotuit Center for the Arts, 4404 Falmouth Road, Cotuit MA

As the name suggests, this pop-up concentrates on smaller pieces by local artists. Paintings, jewelry and pottery are among the work offered, with the size of the pieces deliberately kept gift-friendly.
