BOOTH SET-UP
- All food vendors are responsible for providing their own tents, tent weights, awnings, cooking
equipment, grills, etc. - Electricity and water will be provided by the Festival as part of your booth fee, but vendors will need to provide their own lighting since lights will be necessary to your operation after sunset.
- Please bring at least 50′ extension cords that are 12 gauge with ground
- All vendors must have a banner or large signage with the name of your restaurant or organization prominently displayed on your tent or booth.
END OF FESTIVAL CLEAN-UP
Your team must clean up your booth space and surrounding area at the end of the festival (at time of breakdown). Remember that you and your team cannot break down before the end of the festival! The festival ends at 10:30pm on Saturday and, if you choose to breakdown Saturday AFTER the festival closes, we will check your space Sunday morning. We want to leave the neighborhood as lovely as when we arrived! Plentiful and convenient trash receptacles will be available in order to assist you in this effort and our volunteers and neighbor hosts really appreciate your thoughtfulness.
