Craft Fair

25 spots open

Held at Eldridge Park in Elmira, New York, the Christmas in July Craft Fair brings together local artisans and makers for a summer celebration of handmade goods. Taking place on July 26th, 2026, this one-time craft fair gives shoppers a chance to browse and purchase directly from vendors who create everything from home decor and jewelry to textiles, woodwork, and seasonal decorations. Craft fairs like this one offer a different experience than farmers markets or pop-up shops, since the focus is entirely on handcrafted items and small-business makers rather than produce or general merchandise. You'll find unique, one-of-a-kind pieces that reflect the creativity and skill of local artisans. The summer timing makes this an ideal event for picking up decorative items and gifts throughout the year. Many vendors at craft fairs like this offer holiday-themed products, which explains the Christmas theme even in the middle of July. Shoppers often include gift-givers planning ahead for fall and winter celebrations, as well as collectors and home decorators looking for distinctive pieces that can't be found in mass-produced retail stores. The park setting in Elmira provides a relaxed outdoor atmosphere where you can stroll between vendors and chat with makers about their craft and inspiration. Whether you create home goods, accessories, artwork, or any other handmade items, a craft fair focused on locally-made products is an excellent venue to connect with customers who actively seek out artisan goods. The event draws people who value quality, originality, and supporting independent makers, making it a worthwhile opportunity to showcase your work and build relationships with repeat buyers in the Elmira community.

Craft Fair

25 spots open

Held annually at Eldridge Park in Elmira, New York, this craft fair brings together independent makers and small business owners in one of the region's most accessible community spaces. If you're a vendor working with handmade goods, this June event is worth considering as part of your selling calendar. Craft fairs like this one typically draw a mix of established crafters and emerging makers, creating an environment where shoppers actively seek out items they can't find in chain stores. The audience tends to be quality-conscious and supportive of local artisans, making them ideal customers for those selling unique, hand-crafted products. June is a prime selling season for craft vendors across New York. Shoppers are in a gifting mood heading into summer celebrations, outdoor entertaining season is underway, and people are looking to refresh their homes and wardrobes with handmade pieces. At an event like the Elmira Craft Fair, you'll typically find vendors offering everything from jewelry and home décor to textiles, woodworking, pottery, art prints, bath and beauty products, and accessories. The craft fair format works differently than farmers markets or larger festivals, because the entire focus is on artisan-made goods rather than produce or entertainment. This means your customer base is specifically shopping for craftsmanship and design rather than browsing casually. Eldridge Park provides a community setting familiar to local residents, which can help with foot traffic. Since this is a one-time event on June 7th, 2026, it may appeal to vendors looking to test a specific market or fit a particular date into their spring schedule. If your handmade craft business is based in or near upstate New York, or if you regularly travel the region for markets, this event could be a good fit to reach Elmira-area customers who appreciate supporting small makers.

The market accepts multiple payment methods including credit cards, making transactions convenient. It's also part of the SNAP/EBT, WIC, and Senior FMNP programs, which means eligible shoppers can use these benefits to purchase fresh produce and qualifying items.

Whether you're looking for weekly produce staples, specialty items from local makers, or just a reason to get outside on a Friday afternoon, EastSide Market offers a regular gathering spot for food-focused shopping from June through October.
