VENDOR Registration - 6th Annual Orange Artisan Festival & Business Expo - June 18, 2026
Previously business vedors were located in a large tent at a higher price point. This year, we've eliminated the large tent which will allow us to lower the business vendor cost from $250 to $100, schedule a rain date, keep artisans and businesses together, and improve visitor traffic flow. Therefore, all vendors will be required to bring their own pop-up tents, tables, and tablecloths. We will provide chairs. Tents have to be weighted or staked for the protection of everyone.
Vendors will be placed consecutively in the field upon arrival. Sponsors will be located under the pavilion and tables and chairs are included in the cost of sponsorship.
