Mission Resort + Club is gearing up to welcome families, local artisans and visitors from across Central Florida for the third installment of the Howey Artisan Market, returning this month with a special Fall Festival edition.

Set for Saturday, October 25 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., the market will once again bring the community together for a day of live entertainment, handcrafted goods and family fun. The event, held on the last Saturday of every month, has quickly become a can’t-miss tradition in Florida’s Hill Country, celebrating creativity, small business, and local pride.

This month’s Fall Festival will feature live music by John V. throughout the day, along with free admission and parkingfor all attendees. Families can enjoy seasonal photo sessions with Jessica Taylor Photography from 10 a.m. to noon, including one complimentary digital image, and pets are welcome to join the portraits.

Guests can browse the pumpkin patch for a perfect seasonal pick or register for the Breast Cancer Awareness Cornhole Tournament, beginning at 9 a.m. The tournament will feature a 50/50 prize split, with proceeds benefiting both the winning team and the Pink Tea Fundraiser.

Pet lovers won’t want to miss the pet costume contest and parade, beginning at 10:30 a.m. after registration at the Mission Resort + Club tent. Vendors will vote for their favorite costumes as the pets make their way through the market and treats will be given along the route.

With over 40 vendors expected, visitors can look forward to a wide variety of handmade crafts, local art, farm-fresh produce, and gourmet food items from some of Central Florida’s finest makers.

The Howey Artisan Market was launched by Mission Resort + Club in partnership with Orange Blossom Market Co., a local event curator known for connecting small businesses and artisans across the state. Each month, the market continues to grow, offering a family-friendly experience filled with creativity, community, and connection.

The event will take place at Mission Resort + Club, 10400 County Road 48, Howey-in-the-Hills, with free admission and parking for all guests.
