I'm trying to decide when to do my Homemade for the Holidays show. I'd like to do it in November, but not sure if it's too close to Thanksgiving. I will have company at my house Nov 22-24th so that rules out that weekend. Thoughts ? suggestions? thanks ! !
 
Since you don't have it scheduled yet, you'd better shoot for early December so you can get your invites out and reminder calls made. Good luck!

Hi there! I completely understand your dilemma. November is a great time to do a Homemade for the Holidays show, but with Thanksgiving right around the corner, it can be a bit tricky. My suggestion would be to aim for the first or second weekend in November. This gives you some time before Thanksgiving, but still allows you to capture the holiday spirit and excitement. Alternatively, you could also consider hosting the show in early December, after Thanksgiving has passed. This way, you can still showcase holiday recipes and products, but without the added stress of Thanksgiving preparations. Ultimately, it's important to choose a date that works best for you and your schedule. Happy planning and good luck with your show!
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best date to host a Homemade for the Holidays show?

The best date to host a Homemade for the Holidays show typically falls in early to mid-December. This timing allows guests to get inspired for their holiday cooking and baking while still having time to purchase items before the holidays.

Should I consider hosting my show on a weekend or weekday?

Weekends are generally more convenient for most guests, making them a popular choice for hosting shows. However, consider your audience; if they have busy weekends, a weekday evening might work better for them.

How far in advance should I schedule my show?

It's recommended to schedule your show at least 3-4 weeks in advance. This gives you ample time to promote the event and allows guests to save the date in their calendars.

What if my preferred date is already booked?

If your preferred date is already booked, consider alternative dates within the same week or look for a time slot that aligns with other local events. Flexibility can help you find a suitable date that works for both you and your guests.

Are there specific days that are better for attendance?

Generally, Thursdays and Fridays tend to have higher attendance rates, as many people are looking to unwind and prepare for the weekend. However, it's essential to know your audience and their preferences to choose the best day for your show.
