We accept vendors who sell unique, high quality, one-of-a-kind, original and/or handmade works.

The World of Food is one of the most popular attractions at the festival. It features international cuisines, healthy choices, and festival favorites. We prefer vendors who sell just a few items, arranged to be served quickly and efficiently.
