My 2027 Hamfest and Show List
Tuesday, November 10, 2026 at 07:51:59
The 2026 hamfest season is (almost?) over, and it’s time to determine which shows are on 2027’s roster. I’m going to change up where I go a little this year, back to a couple of the smaller shows that are nearby and maybe skip some of the ones I know aren’t providing me with enough for the drive.
Since it’s still late 2026 when I’m posting this, not all shows have updated yet. Check back for actual dates and pictures from the shows, as well as a year-end wrapup.

There may be a few others in there, but these are the ones that I’m planning on in 2027. I’ll probably attend the Johnstown Swappers Day (assuming it doesn’t rain!) and the Scott Antique Markets at the end of the year - I’ll add those as they get closer to the dates. The 2026 wrapup will be appearing soon, so stay tuned and see you at the hamfest!
