Fredericksburg Trade Days
Fredericksburg Trade Days is a Texas Hill Country shopping experience like no other.
Held the third weekend of each month, you’ll find acres of shopping, food, drinks, and live music.
What Are Trade Days?
Fredericksburg Trade Days started in a single garage more than twenty years ago and has evolved into one of the state's largest, most popular trade shows. This unique shopping extravaganza boasts more than 350 vendors in seven barns and several outlying tents and displays.
Trade Days is a monthly event at Sunday Farms, just seven miles from downtown Fredericksburg, across from Wildseed Farms.
What You Can Expect
The Fredericksburg Trade Days schedule is: Friday and Saturday 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. and Sunday 9 a.m. – 4 p.m.
Vendors vary from month to month, but you can expect a huge variety of unique items such as artwork, boots, jewelry, soaps, antiques, furniture, pet items, vintage signs, old hardware, vintage clothing, vinyl records, hats, crystal, holiday décor, gun holsters, knives, plants, cosmetics, candles, pottery, hunting accessories, and much, much more.
Parking on the grounds costs just $5 for the weekend, and portions of the proceeds are donated to local charities.
Dogs are welcome, but they must be on a leash, and you must clean up after your pet.
Food and Drink
Trade Days vendors serve up all kinds of festival foods, such as fresh fudge, mini donuts, burgers, mac ‘n’ cheese, kettle corn, roasted corn, ice cream, tacos, and a variety of other delicious treats.
There is a Biergarten (or beer garden) where you can enjoy a variety of beers, other refreshments, and live entertainment.
Live Music and Entertainment
Live music is a staple at Fredericksburg Trade Days, and the Biergarten hosts the best local bands from noon – 4 p.m. each day for your listening pleasure.
This family-friendly event even has face painting for the kids.
