Yule Blessings Fair – FREE Winter Solstice Event | Madison Heights, MI
The Yule Blessings Fair is a free winter solstice gathering at Crimson Commuter in Madison Heights on Saturday, December 19, 2026. Doors open at 11:30 AM and the fair runs from noon until 6:00 PM, two days ahead of the solstice itself.
Yule marks the turn back toward the light. This one is the cozy fair of the year, and it is built for closing out December rather than pushing into it.
What you will find
- Tarot readings for clarity as the wheel turns toward the new year.
- Mediumship for connection with loved ones in spirit during the solstice season.
- Aura photography, capturing your energy field in color on the shortest day of the year.
- Flower essences chosen for rest, renewal and emotional balance.
- Healers offering energy work and sessions to close out the year.
- Local artists and vendors with handmade pieces and one-of-a-kind gifts.
- The Crimson Commuter store, carrying Yule oracle and tarot decks, Yule books and seasonal gifts.
Before you come
No cover is charged at any point. Reserving a free ticket helps with planning. Readers, healers, artists and vendors each decide what to charge for their own work. Payment differs from stall to stall, so cash together with a card covers every table. On-site parking is free and all ages may attend.
Getting here
Crimson Commuter stands on John R Road in Madison Heights. Royal Oak, Troy, Warren, Hazel Park and Detroit all sit within a quick drive of the entrance.
What Yule marks
The winter solstice is the shortest day and the longest night, and the moment the light begins to grow again. Gathering to mark the returning of the sun is older than any of the traditions in the room, and that is the frame for the whole afternoon: closing out one year rather than rushing at the next.
Come if you are
- Celebrating Yule, the solstice, or the return of the light.
- Searching for intentional holiday gifts with some thought behind them.
- Curious about tarot, mediumship or energy healing.
- Wanting to see what your aura looks like.
- After a cozy, free community afternoon near Detroit.
The Yule shelves
The Crimson Commuter store carries Yule-themed oracle and tarot decks, Yule books, and seasonal gifts through the fair. Local artists sit alongside the readers, so the handmade work and the readings share one room rather than being split across two events.
Welcome back the sun
Bring a friend, come with an open heart, and take a day of warmth, readings, healing and solstice magick at your own pace. The fair runs six hours so there is no need to rush any part of it.
The readings, energy sessions and essences on offer support personal reflection and rest. They are not medical or mental health care, and nothing here diagnoses or treats any condition, and no outcome is promised.
