Craft Fairs & Farmers Markets in Marietta, Georgia

Marietta Art in the Park celebrates its 40th year on the historic Marietta Square in Glover Park, just northwest of Atlanta. This juried fine art festival draws over 55,000 guests over Labor Day weekend and ranks in Sunshine Artist Magazine's top 100 best fine art shows. Hand-crafted work only — jewelry, pottery, glass, painting, photography, textile, metal, wood, digital media, and mixed media. The jury selects artists by category based on design, quality, and presentation. Artist attendance is mandatory; no agents or representatives. 24-hour security provided.

Held on Marietta Square, the Marietta Fourth of July Celebration features 80 arts and crafts booths alongside food vendors, children's activities, and live entertainment throughout the day. The celebration concludes with an evening concert followed by one of Metro Atlanta's largest fireworks shows.

Held on the Historic Marietta Square year-round each Saturday morning, this producer-focused farmers market requires vendors to grow or produce their own goods. Produce, baked goods, eggs, and dairy are the core — prepared foods must use at least one locally sourced ingredient and require Georgia Department of Agriculture licensing. Consistent weekly attendance is expected. No arts & crafts, coffee, tea, or resale goods.

Held the first weekend in May at historic Marietta Square, May-Retta Daze draws over 15,000 people for an arts, crafts, and music festival where all work is made and displayed by the artist. Expect strong foot traffic, a full vendor mix beyond crafts — food, live music, kids' zone — and an established community crowd.

Running 94 years in Marietta, the North Georgia State Fair draws hundreds of thousands of visitors each fall. The fair runs for 11 days and features unlimited rides, family attractions, exhibits, and food vendors. An 8-time winner of Marietta Daily Journal's Best of Cobb awards for Best Festival and Best Family Attraction — the established crowd and traffic volume make this a high-draw event for food and craft vendors.
