The Elko Christmas Bazaar is officially in its 43rd year and it’s a must-visit for any crafty Nevadan. This humble community bazaar regularly brings out makers and vendors from not just Nevada, but surrounding states such as Idaho, California, Oregon, and Utah.

A major requirement of all items sold at the Elko Christmas Bazaar is that they must be handmade or crafted by the vendor. This ensures that shoppers get a truly unique experience while perusing the various vendors and their homemade items.
