MOUNT DORA CRAFT FAIR ROLLS IN OCT. 27-28

10/19/2018

As cooler weather returns, so does one of Central Florida's biggest craft fairs. The heart of downtown Mount Dora comes alive on October 27 and 28 with more than 400 crafters from across the country.

The Mount Dora Craft Fair is a top-ranked event featuring an eclectic mix of handmade items ranging from jewelry, photography and textiles to paintings, leather goods and woodwork. Downtown’s many unique stores and restaurants are also open during fair hours.

The festival runs Saturday and Sunday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Parking restrictions begin in the late afternoon on Friday to allow for the vendors to set up. There will be free shuttles provided from public parking locations including Mount Dora High School and Mount Dora Christian Academy. The Train will also be offering free rides coming out of Tavares.

The craft fair is too early! Most snowbirds are not around yet. I expect that you will have a low turnout this year. We are coming south early this year and will still miss this nice festival. See you late the 29th.

Hi Lon,
Sorry you'll miss the annual Craft Festival. It's been the same weekend in October for several years (maybe even decades). Perhaps you're confused with the Art Festival which is in February? Both annual festivals are always very well attended.

There is great turnout at the festival as usual. Traffic is crazy and its going to get worst with all the growth which many residents are not happy about.
