Asheville Pridefest is an excellent way to connect with members of the local LBGT community. It will be the perfect venue to distribute information, recruit members or sell crafts, food and more.

About the Space
The festival is an outdoor festival this year. No electricity is available. Lighting will not be an issue because the festival ends at 6 PM. All spaces are 10' X 10' and all vendors are required to use a 10' X 10' canopy. (Contact us if you need assistance locating one.) Entrance to your space must be from the front because there will NOT be any walking space between vendors.

Key Application Information and Dates
If you are interested in being a vendor, we must receive your Vendor Application before October 3, 2008. Spaces are only reserved when a $25 deposit plus, your $100 Vendor Space has been paid. You will receive a refund check of $25 within 10 days after the festival, providing you clean up your space and do not leave early. Vendors will be asked to sign out before they leave the festival to ensure they have stayed until the required time of 6pm.
