Vendor booths are available for the festival. The cost for each booth ranges from $50 for those who do not need electricity to $70 for those who require electricity. Early bird registration will begin on August 29 and last until October 17. Those who wish to register after Oct 17 will be charged an addition $10 for their booth.
