Naples New Year's Art Fair 2026 - 30th Annual

Naples Art Institute's Naples New Year's Art Fair, held for its 30th annual edition, draws 15-20,000 sophisticated and art-savvy patrons to the heart of Naples. Amidst the numerous high-end shops, galleries and restaurants that downtown Naples and its prestigious 5th Avenue South area are famous for, your opportunity to showcase your art to its wealthy residents and visitors awaits. The 2025 New Year's Art Fair was listed amongst the Best Fine Art fairs in the US by Sunshine Artist Magazine and the Top fairs in the nation for Fine Art sales (ArtFairSourceBook 2025).

This 2-day, independently juried fine art fair with 250 booths in shady Cambier Park and along Park Street has long been an artist favorite for its combination of a beautiful location, pleasant weather, and great sales. Naples Art Institute's staff and volunteers create a welcoming atmosphere and are dedicated to the artists' success. With a Friday setup, reserved parking options, complimentary breakfast, overnight security, booth sitters, and access to our Institute's facilities, artists can enjoy the fair and focus on interacting with their customers. The fair takes place January 3-4, 2026, with application deadline September 5, 2025, jury notifications September 23, 2025, and booth purchase deadline October 30, 2025.
