The fall fair runs October 8–28, 2026. Open from 10 am to 5 pm daily. The fall fair open on a Thursday.
The fall event includes three 7-day periods. Approximately 20–30 artisans change out at the end of each period.
Live musical performances take place daily at noon and 3 p.m. on the stage near the concessions area. Featured performers include acoustic bluegrass band Misty River, The Po’ Ramblin’ Boys, Mountain Highway, and, during the fall fair, the Dennis Lee Band, featuring country, patriotic, gospel, and bluegrass music. Performances are included with admission to the fair.
Fall admission for adults is $12 at the gate (no online ticket sales at this time). Children 17 and under are admitted free. Multi-day passes are available at the Office on aisle 500 for free with a photo ID. This allows patrons to return for the rest of the fair.
Push wheelchairs are available on a first-come, first-served basis at no cost. Electric scooter and chair rentals are also available about a block away from the convention center.
Pets are welcome but must be restrained by their owners on a leash or in a carrier. The Gatlinburg Convention Center has a no-paws-on-the-floor policy, so pets must not be allowed to walk on the convention center floor. Gatlinburg Craftsmen’s Fair, LLC, reserves the right to ask patrons with pets to leave when deemed necessary by the promoters. Pet owners are solely responsible for their pets’ behavior.
Concessions are available in the Great Hall and offered by Holston’s Catering, Sevierville. If you are leaving the building, you may have your hand stamped at the ticket-taker station to return the same day.
Group rates are available for groups of 15 or more. Please call for more details: 865-436-7475.
