To maintain quality and variety, we may limit the number of food vendors.  If we reach capacity, a wait list will be created, and vendors will be notified of any openings. We will provide monthly updates (January-June) to all applicants to share event news, waitlist status, and important deadlines.

We aim to include a wide range of offerings including breakfast offerings and traditional foods.  Vendors in specific categories will apply.
