Holiday Festival of Crafts 2026

Once a year, the Friday, Saturday, and Sunday after Thanksgiving, the Worcester Center for Crafts is transformed into a European-style holiday marketplace complete with twinkly lights and the sweet smell of evergreens. This juried marketplace celebrates American handmade craft and is our antidote to the big-box madness of holiday shopping. By bringing together craft artists of the highest caliber all under one roof, the Holiday Festival of Crafts is a one-stop holiday shopping opportunity for unique, handmade gifts in a range of prices for men, women, and children. Craft collectors also will find that this is an opportunity to compare a wide range of work suitable for collecting. Join us for the 44th annual Holiday Festival of Crafts!

Usually featuring over 50 fine craft artists and their work, the Festival is held indoors and includes free lot and street parking.

Cost: $5 Entry Fee

Hours:

Friday – 10am-5pm

Saturday – 10am-5pm

Sunday 11am-4pm

Clubs, workplaces, and senior living communities can book a Boston bus rental through Boston Charter Bus Rental for the Festival. Boston Charter Bus Rental can also coordinate nationwide pickups for groups traveling from outside.
