Celebrating 40 years, Christmas in the Country is the Nation’s Premier Holiday Artisan Market and a Grand Western New York tradition.  Welcoming artisans from all over the country, our flagship event has been voted the #1 Artisan Market for the past decade.  Attendees to Christmas in the Country will find unique and only handcrafted creations including home décor, gourmet foods, craft spirits and wine, trendsetting jewelry, hand poured aromatic candles, children’s toys, custom furniture, stylish pottery, original wall art, gifts for pets, and holiday gift items galore.  This is the opportunity to make your gift buying meaningful and shopping festive!

In 2024, the 40th Annual Christmas in the Country opens Thursday and Friday, November 7th and 8th from 10am-9pm each day, Saturday November 9th from 9am-6pm and Sunday November 10th from 10am-4pm in five buildings on the Fairgrounds in Hamburg.

Throughout the history of Christmas in the Country, community involvement has always been an integral part of the event.  This year, the participating non-profit groups include:  The PUNT Foundation, Churches in Action, Hamburg Eden Animal Rescue Team (H.E.A.R.T.), Variety The Children’s Charity of Buffalo and the Hamburg Presbyterian Church. 

 Premier Promotions has produced high quality, extremely successful artisan events including Springtime in the Country,  Christmas in the Country Hamburg, Christmas in the Country-Rochester and Yuletide in the Country.  The events are consistently ranked among the Top 100 artisan shows in America, by Sunshine Artist magazine.  Last year, more than 100,000 visitors attended these events purchasing more than $6 million in high quality, hand crafted goods from juried artists and artisans.  These events have helped raise more than $2.5 million for Western New York charities.
