Big Gay Holiday Market Returns to Celebrate Queer Joy and Community

INDIANAPOLIS, IN  

The Big Gay Holiday Market returns December 13-14, 2025, bringing together over 100 LGBTQIA2S+ artists, makers, and community partners for a weekend of festive shopping, creativity, and celebration. The event will take place at The Amp at 16 Tech in partnership with Indy Pride’s Frost Series.

Shoppers can expect two days of local queer talent, handmade goods, art, and holiday cheer — a perfect opportunity to support small LGBTQIA2S+ businesses while celebrating community and inclusivity.

“Through the darkness, queer artists continue to shine their light,” says Hannah Hadley, President of Indy Gay Market. “This market is about more than shopping; it's about connection, visibility, and creating a space where everyone feels welcome.”

Event Hours:

• Saturday, December 13: 4:00 PM - 8:00 PM

• Sunday, December 14: 1:00 PM - 5:00 PM

The Big Gay Holiday Market welcomes LGBTQIA2S+ community members, allies, and families of all kinds to come shop, hang out, and celebrate the season. The market will feature art, crafts, handmade goods, and community resource tables and plenty of holiday spirit.

Admission is free and open to the public.
