Simpsonville Holiday Fair Returns Saturday with Over 85 Local Artisans, Food Drive, and Charitable Mission

Downtown Simpsonville will kick off the festive shopping season this weekend as the Simpsonville Holiday Fair 2026 opens its doors at the Simpsonville Activity & Senior Center on Saturday, Nov. 7.

Organized in partnership between the Upstate Women’s Club and the City of Simpsonville, the annual indoor market runs from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. at 310 W. Curtis St. Simpsonville Admission is free and open to the entire Golden Strip community.

Now in its multi-decade tradition of bringing local makers together under one roof, this year’s fair has expanded significantly, featuring more than 85 curated vendors showcasing handcrafted holiday decor, jewelry, apparel, seasonal treats, and unique artisan gifts.

In addition to offering a head start on holiday gift lists, the event carries a strong philanthropic mission. All vendor registration proceeds are channeled directly back into local non-profit charities supported by the Upstate Women’s Club, a service organization active in the region since 1933.

Fair organizers are also asking attendees to extend a helping hand to neighbors in need. Visitors are encouraged to bring non-perishable canned food donations to the event entrance. All collected food items will directly stock the shelves of the Center for Community Services Food Bank, providing critical meal assistance to Golden Strip families throughout the winter season.

With cold weather approaching and the holiday season right around the corner, organizers anticipate a steady stream of shoppers throughout the morning and early afternoon.
