About this event
Known as Austin’s homegrown holiday tradition for nearly five decades, the Armadillo Christmas Bazaar announces it will be back at the Palmer Events Center (900 Barton Springs Road, Austin, Texas 78704) with some exciting new changes for this year’s show. Austin's highly beloved art and music festival will take place Dec. 12 - 21 from 11 a.m. - 8:30 p.m. daily. With roots in Austin’s legendary Armadillo World Headquarters, the Armadillo Christmas Bazaar is one of Austin's longest-running art and music festivals. From its beginning at the Armadillo World Headquarters to its current 44,000 square feet, the event features a stunning display of temporary galleries and shops, full bars, photo ops, local food from Southside Flying Pizza and an intimate stage you can see and hear all over the show. The Armadillo is the home to the National String Off Competition every year, doing our best to keep Austin weird. To learn more about the Armadillo Christmas Bazaar check out the Austin Insider Blog.
