What Makes Geneva Market Special?

The Geneva Market is not your average flea market or simple craft fair.

It is a thoughtfully curated indoor and outdoor shopping experience that brings together some of the best handmade, vintage, antique, boutique, and specialty vendors from Iowa and beyond.

With up to 200 vendors attending from local communities and multiple states, shoppers can expect a huge variety of items including:

Handmade Goods & Original Art

Support talented makers offering unique handcrafted items, décor, gifts, clothing, and more.

Vintage & Antique Finds

Dozens of antique and vintage vendors will be on-site with timeless treasures, rustic décor, collectibles, furniture, and one-of-a-kind pieces from the past.

Boutiques for the Fashion Lovers

The market also features clothing boutiques for adults and children, making it a fun stop for anyone wanting to refresh their wardrobe.

Amazing Food & Treats

A dozen food and beverage trailers will be serving up delicious eats, along with vendors offering baked goods and sweet treats.

Come hungry.

A Market with Heart

One of the most meaningful things about The Geneva Market is that it is also Franklin County’s largest original fundraising event, hosted by The Geneva Betterment.

Funds raised help support:

  • Community improvement projects
  • Donations to local non-profit organizations
  • Assistance for residents facing hardship
  • Upkeep and maintenance of the beloved Geneva Auditorium venue

When you shop this market, you’re not only supporting small businesses... you’re supporting an entire community.
