Armadillo Christmas Bazaar Background. A beloved Austin cultural tradition for over 3 decades, the Armadillo Bazaar has celebrated Austin’s unique cultural identity since 1976. The show is renowned as a treasure trove of original, one of a kind art and gift items made for you by the very best local and national artists and artisans. This year the Armadillo is proud to present 29 musical performances by great new bands and Austin legends alike. This year at the Palmer Events Center, we continue the popular emerging musicians in our weekday lunchtime series. This year (2010) The Bazaar will be held from December 15-24 at Austin’s Palmer Event Center.
