Christmas in July at the Community Market Today

Radcliff, KY · July 11, 2026

The humidity is holding steady, but the festive spirit at the park might help you forget the heat for a while. Keep an eye on the clouds, as we’re likely to see some activity before the day is through.


The Lead

The Radcliff Community Market is leaning into the "Christmas in July" theme this morning at the City Park. While the thermometer says mid-summer, the atmosphere will feature holiday-themed crafts, early-bird gift shopping, and even a few vendors sporting Santa hats. This mid-season push is a vital moment for our local artisans and farmers, providing a boost between the spring planting rush and the fall harvest.

Organizers have expanded the footprint this year to accommodate ten new local vendors, ranging from handmade jewelry to small-batch hot sauces. It’s a great chance to support the local economy while grabbing fresh produce before the afternoon rain rolls in. The market opens its gates at 8:00 AM, and the first fifty visitors usually get the pick of the best heirloom tomatoes.
