Additional Information
- Verbal applications will not be accepted. Please do not call our office asking for booth space. If you are serious about participating in our events, read the information here and send in an application via mail or email. We will happily accept and review in detail any written narratives, photos, presentations or anything else you wish to submit along with the application.
- Late applications will not be accepted. We stop the application process well ahead of the events because that is when we get too busy with prep to process new ones. Apply early so you don’t miss out!
- We accept applications on a rolling basis. You have better chance of getting in if you send in your application earlier rather than later.
- We will begin accepting applications for the 2012 CeltFest and 2013 Faire on April 20th. To receive a reminder when the form is available, please sign up for our Prospective Vendor email list.
