The official start of the holiday season in Indianapolis, Indiana, in my opinion, is when the Indianapolis Christmas Gift + Hobby Show comes to town. The Christmas Gift & Hobby Show is a great event that takes place at the West Pavilion of the Indiana State Fairgrounds & Event Center. It takes place over five days in November. It is a wonderful way to get into the holiday spirit and start on your Christmas shopping, whether you’re looking for gifts or holiday decorations. You can even get a discount ticket for the event here.
The event will take place from Wednesday, November 12, 2025, through Sunday, November 16, 2025. On Wednesday and Thursday, the event is available from 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM On Friday and Saturday, the event is available from 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM. Then the event is available from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM on Sunday.
I want to tell you about all the great things going on at this event. And then I’ll tell you how you can save money on a ticket here!
