5 Reasons to Visit Shipshewana Flea Market After Labor Day

While the thrust of our market season tends to be Memorial Day through Labor Day, there are plenty of reasons to visit Shipshewana Flea Market after Labor Day!

#1 - Fall & Christmas Decor

Home decor is a very popular product category for the Shipshewana Flea Market shoppers. No wonder why the Fall & Christmas decor made the top of this list! With hundreds of vendor spaces, you'll be able to find Christmas and Fall decor for your home, office or as gifts for anyone's decorating style.

#2 - Christmas Gift Shopping

There is NO BETTER place to find that special Christmas gift or stocking stuffer for everyone on your shopping list all in one convenient location. Shipshewana Flea Market vendors carry products in over 50 product categories, all summed up in 9 Featured Shopping Trails.

#3 - Shop for Yourself (The Kids are Back in School!)

Take time to treat yourself after a long summer. The kids are back in school and you can find items that are fun and functional. Don't miss the chance to find accessories, clothing, household items, gifts, decor, plants, produce, yard decor, jewelry, handcrafted items, foods, antiques, yard games, and so much more!
