The Big One Minot Christmas Show 2026: Minot Show Guide

The Big One’s Minot Christmas Show returns to the North Dakota State Fair Center November 6–7, 2026. Its 51st annual edition brings handmade work and baked goods into a two-day indoor holiday shopping event.

A large selection with a handmade focus

The organizer advertises more than 300 booths filled by over 200 exhibitors. That scale makes a simple shopping list helpful, but leave room for an unexpected object or a conversation with a maker. Ask about the materials in decorative pieces, the care of functional goods and how fragile purchases will be packed. Food purchases may need different storage or travel arrangements from artwork.
