Christmas markets in Wisconsin, 2026
8 Wisconsin Christmas markets have official 2026 dates. The first opens Nov 20 (Deer District Holiday Market, Milwaukee) and the last closes Dec 19 (Sparta Kriskindlmarkt, Sparta).
Each listing shows the date we last checked its source (between September 30, 2026 and October 22, 2026). Dates come from each organizer's own page, or from an official tourism listing where the listing says so.
Dates, hours and prices come from each organizer's own website or the official listing named with it and can change, and some sites still show last season's details. Check with the organizer before you go. How we check

Know a Wisconsin market we are missing, or see a date that changed? Tell us. We confirm it on the organizer's site before we add or change anything. A market gets a page of its own once it has posted 2026 dates, and a market still waiting on dates gets one only in a state with at least 3 dated markets; until then its full details sit on this page.
