Witches Days Out ~ 2027 invites artists, artisans, merchants, entertainers, performers, food vendors, readers, healers, educators, and creative souls to join us for a weekend filled with mystery, magic, community, and enchantment.

Join us for the 6th Annual Witches Days Out, an immersive, family-friendly celebration where witches, mystics, folklore enthusiasts, curious souls, and lovers of the extraordinary come together to explore the unusual, celebrate creativity, and embrace the magic of the season.

On October 16 & 17, 2027, the McHenry County Fairgrounds in Woodstock, Illinois, will once again transform into an enchanted destination filled with handcrafted treasures, captivating entertainment, mystical experiences, delicious discoveries, and unforgettable moments.

Witches Days Out is so much more than a marketplace or festival. It is a gathering of community, a celebration of individuality, and an opportunity to connect with people who appreciate creativity, imagination, and the wonderfully unconventional.
