Over 400 Holiday festivals throughout 12 states in 1 weekend.
l have a wonderful holiday weekend to present (pun intended?) to you, festival fans. It’s a weekend filled with holiday light shows, downtown lighting events, Christmas festivals and markets, and so much more. If ever there was a weekend to do some holiday shopping, eat some sugar cookies and take in a musical performance, it would be this one. So pull out your calendar and schedule in some time for yourself so that you can take advantage of it.
Ohio alone has over 100 events, filled with plenty of holiday craft shows and bazaars, and wonderful holiday festivals. The ones I’ve been to and written about (check out links below) are the Dalton Holidays Festival, Plymouth’s Christmas in the Village Holiday Marketplace and Street Fair, and the Holiday CircleFest in Cleveland. But there are MANY festivals I still haven’t had the chance to attend that you can visit this weekend, such as the Pickerington Holiday Gathering, Christmas in the Village (Canal Winchester), another Christmas in the Village (Waynesville), Krampus Fest (Olmsted Falls), A Christmas Carroll (Carroll), the Oxford Holiday Festival, Christmas in the Village Festival and Parade (Coolville), the Lebanon Carriage Parade and Christmas Festival, Huron Winter Fest, and Christmas on the Canal (Canal Fulton).
Maybe I’ll be fortunate enough to go to some as well (I’m just a sucker for sugar cookies).
If your interests lie in festivals outside of Ohio, you shouldn’t be disappointed. In all of the states, there are interesting festivals worth visiting from the popular Art Basel in Miami Beach, Florida to the lesser known, yet delicious-sounding, Coquito Festival in Chicago, Illinois.
Go through the lists and you’ll likely find something interesting in your state and don’t forget to check out the map to see what’s going on around you.
Here are some of the festivals I would check out in the other states:
Florida (49 Fests): Christmas on the Square (Live Oak), Santa Fest (Tampa), Christmas in Naples
Georgia (34 Fests): Winter Wonderlights (Athens), Kris Kringle Market (Blairsville)
Illinois (33 Fests): National Coquito Festival (Chicago), Julmarknad (Rockford)
Indiana (26 Fests): The Medora Christmas Festival, Lebanon Christmas on the Square
Kentucky (17 Fests): A Dickens Christmas Festival at the KY Renaissance Fair (Eminence), A Carlisle Christmas
Michigan (34 Fests): Christmas in Caledonia, Christmas in the Ville (Fowlerville)
New York (16 Fests): Trumansburg Winterfest, Sparkle (Corning)
Pennsylvania (18Fests): Christmas in the Park (New Brighton), A Very Merry Christmas in Chippewa (Beaver Falls)
Tennessee (26 Fests): Holiday Spirits Cocktail Festival (Franklin), Brew Lights Chattanooga
West Virginia (8 Fests): Winter Wonderland (Fayetteville), Olde Tyme Christmas (Bolivar/Harpers Ferry)
Wisconsin (35 Fests): Old World Christmas Market (Elkhart Lake), Christkindl Festival (Black River Falls)
Have a wonderful Hanukkah and Holiday Weekend, everyone!
Love, Peace and Funnel Cake Grease!
