Harvest Moon Night Market

October 11 @ 4:00 pm – 9:00 pm

Harvest Moon Night Market Returns October 11 with More Whimsy, Art, and Music!

Last year’s breakout event, Harvest Moon Night Market, returns to Downtown Calumet on Sunday, October 11 from 4–9 PM, bringing an expanded evening of art, music, film, and autumn enchantment. This year’s event will fill the Calumet Greenspace, Open Space Gallery, and The Calumet Theatre Ballroom, creating a larger, more immersive experience for visitors of all ages.

 

Guests are invited to wander through a vibrant mix of indoor and outdoor vendor booths featuring local artists, authors, herbalists, farmers, bakers, and makers. Vendor Alley is growing this year, offering even more opportunities to discover handcrafted goods and seasonal treats. Interactive elements return, including tarot readings, henna, and other activities, craft demonstrations, and more.

New for 2026, Wolf’s Head Film will host a special film screening inside the Open Space Gallery, adding a cinematic layer to the evening’s whimsy!

The Night Market will also feature performances by Arika Rose, Other Side of Pewabic, Gibryn, Cicada, Jo Po, Tom Grotewohl, and a sound bath with Musical Zen. There will also be food trucks and vendors with baked goods and sweet treats.

The Harvest Moon Night Market is organized by the Whimsiqueers, a creative trio made up of Aleksi Kotila (Alakotila Art), Nikki Madisen of Nikki Makes, and Danielle Perkowitz of BigGoat Farm. Together, they saw the need for immersive, whimsical, and inclusive events in the Keweenaw that support local makers and offer the community a memorable way to gather.

Attendees and vendors are encouraged to dress in witchy, woodland, or whimsical attire to fully embrace the spirit of the season. Bring your whimsi-vibes and step into an evening designed to celebrate creativity, community, and the magic of October!
