What is the Hometown Market? The Hometown Markets are held 8 times a year at the Lake County Fairgrounds. Most of the artisan markets are held inside the Industrial Building which provides a comfortable space year round. In addition, we hold one outdoor market in the summer under roof in the big Show pavilion, also at the Fairgrounds.
Again, if you would like to be a vendor, please read the Market guidelines below & fill out the online application.
