Your Welcome Starts Here: What to Know Before You Enter IFAM 2025

At the International Folk Art Market, every detail matters—especially the way we welcome you. This year, we’ve thoughtfully reimagined the Market entrance to make your arrival smoother, safer, and more enjoyable than ever before.

Whether you’re a longtime collector or first-time visitor, here’s everything you need to know to start your journey with ease.

A More Streamlined & Comfortable Entry

New Shuttle Stop + Welcome Moments
