Gatlinburg Craftsmen’s Fair

October 8–28, 2026 | Daily, 10 a.m.–5 p.m.

Get ready for a serious dose of handmade goodness! Filling the 150,000-square-foot Gatlinburg Convention Center, the Gatlinburg Craftsmen’s Fair brings together more than 200 talented artisans and craftspeople from across the country, each showcasing their one-of-a-kind creations.

Every exhibitor goes through a rigorous jury process to ensure the work is truly handmade, unique and top-notch. Expect to find everything from beautifully crafted pottery, leather goods and copper artwork to local sweets and plenty of unexpected treasures you won’t find anywhere else. Along the way, many artisans demonstrate their skills, giving visitors a behind-the-scenes look at how these impressive pieces come to life.

With 200+ booths to explore, there’s something for every taste, style and shopping list. And when all that browsing works up an appetite, concessions are available inside the convention center.

It’s no wonder the Gatlinburg Craftsmen’s Fair has been voted one of the Southeast’s “Most Popular Events.”
