Nearly 100 artisans from across Indiana are expected to showcase their original art, fine craft small-batch food, and locally produced wine, spirits and other beverages. Many will demonstrate their creative process in their booths. Food and beverage producers will offer samples up and down the food aisle.
To celebrate the nation’s 250th birthday, artisans at the 2026 Marketplace will bring special pieces and products with an Americana theme. Guests will vote for their favorite to win the People’s Choice Award.
Indiana Artisans include artists – painters, woodworkers, jewelry designers, fiber and glass makers — and artisans – beekeepers, vintners and distillers, makers of specialty sauces, chocolatiers and more. The Marketplace lets collectors and first-time buyers connect with the creator of high-quality, locally handcrafted work. Watch for a list of exhibitors to be posted in early 2026.
10 a.m.-6 p.m. Saturday, March 28
10 a.m.-4 p.m. Sunday, March 29
Tickets $10, 14 and younger free
The Fairgrounds charges $10 parking
AgHort Building, Indiana State Fairgrounds, Indianapolis
*When arriving at the Fairgrounds, use Gate 1 off 38th Street. Due to construction, Gate 6 (off Fall Creek) will be closed throughout Marketplace weekend.
The 2nd edition of “100 Things to do in Indianapolis Before You Die” by Ashley Petry lists the Marketplace as a must-do event, calling it the place to buy “unique artwork, pretty paper goods, eye-catching jewelry, crave-worthy food products, and the state’s spirits and wines. … Come prepared to splurge on a one-of-a-kind piece that you’ll treasure for a lifetime.”
