It’s time to officially start the holiday season in Indianapolis, Indiana. And you can do that at the Indianapolis Christmas Gift + Hobby Show!
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 at the beginning of 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.
The event will take place from Wednesday, November 8, 2023, through Sunday, November 12, 2023. From Wednesday through Saturday, the event is available from 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM. On Sunday, the event is available from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
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!
Shopping
The main attraction of the Christmas Gift and Hobby Show is, of course, the shopping. You can shop from over 375 booths. We’ll tell you about some of the vendors here.
