Handmade Arcade's Holiday Market, billed as Pittsburgh's largest juried craft market, fills the David L. Lawrence Convention Center from December 4 to 6, 2026, with more than 300 makers selling handcrafted goods. For families the main draw is Hands-On Handmade Arcade, a pop-up craft lab where regional artists and community groups run hands-on making, live demonstrations and interactive activities for adults, children or all audiences from 11 am to 5:30 pm on Saturday and Sunday. Friday 5–8 pm is a ticketed preview party. Saturday has early-bird shopping from 9 to 11 am and general admission from 11 am to 6 pm; Sunday opens with a sensory-friendly shopping hour from 10 to 11 am, then general admission until 6 pm. Tickets for the preview events and general-admission weekend passes are sold online; prices are not printed on the market page. The organizer's site has directions, parking and accessibility details for the convention center.
