Holiday shopping gets a handmade twist in Des Moines November 13–15, 2026, when Iowa's Largest Arts and Crafts Show returns to the Iowa State Fairgrounds.
With more than 300 exhibitors expected, shoppers can browse handmade products, unique gifts and creative finds while getting a jump start on their holiday shopping.
For guests staying at Des Moines West KOA Holiday, the November arts and crafts show is an easy way to add shopping to a fall or early winter camping weekend. Spend the day at the show, explore the Des Moines area and then return to Adel for a quieter evening.
If you prefer unique gifts and handmade items over traditional retail shopping, this event could be a great addition to your Central Iowa itinerary.
Check the official event listing for current hours, admission and exhibitor information.
That doesn't mean this area has to always be empty. When you start reviewing camping options, your history will display here to help compare sites and find the best stay. You will be able to share your stay information with friends or family and save it for a later time if you have a KOA Account.
Make checkout easy by booking all your reservations at once. Add your sites from different campgrounds into your shopping cart* and then choose checkout.
