The Dixie Gun & Knife Show’s Raleigh page lists November 21–22, 2026 at the North Carolina State Fairgrounds’ Jim Graham Building. The organizer’s official schedule gives a GPS address of 4285 Trinity Road, Raleigh, North Carolina 27607.
Saturday and Sunday start at different times
The published public hours are Saturday, 9 a.m.–5 p.m., and Sunday, 10 a.m.–5 p.m. Keep the day alongside the opening time when planning a visit or sharing the listing with someone else.
The organizer says admission at the gate is cash only. That statement concerns gate payment; it should not be expanded into a claim that every exhibitor has the same payment arrangements.
Read the organizer’s entrance conditions
The page publishes visitor conditions, including no pets and specific entrance instructions for patrons bringing firearms. Consult those instructions in full before arrival and follow event staff directions. This article does not reproduce handling procedures or substitute a general rule for the organizer’s current requirements.
Because the venue is part of a larger fairgrounds, identify the named building rather than assuming that any entrance to the property serves the show. Direct accessibility or parking questions to the organizer or venue before traveling.
Keep the occurrence and its status together
This schedule was checked November 2, 2026. Revisit the Raleigh page before departure to confirm that the occurrence remains listed and to read any later notice. A saved search snippet can preserve an old date after the underlying page changes.
