Park 1

VENDOR REGULATIONS AND GUIDELINES

Please check in on Friday, August 2nd between noon and 7pm, as close to your pre-assigned setup time as possible. NO VENDORS WILL BE ALLOWED INTO THE PARK. This will ensure that you get your passes and information, and that you are in the correct area. Vehicles are prohibited in the park, for loading, unloading, parking, or any other purpose. This means that you'll need to pull up near the vendor area to unload and then move your vehicle. Limited parking is available on a first-come, first-served basis. Please check with the festival staff to find out the location of the vendor parking. WE DO NOT GUARANTEE PARKING FOR VENDORS. Please note that the park may be uneven or not level, so please plan accordingly

Product Restrictions

No glass containers are allowed. We ask that each vendor bring only those items which they specified in their application. Additional items may not be sold without prior approval.

Beartrap Summer Festival reserves the right to prohibit the display or sale of any product that could be unsafe, dangerous, offensive, objectionable, or inappropriate for the family-oriented event.

***Although we do our best not to duplicate items sold by non-food vendors, please understand that most of the vendors at our festival sell handmade items, which often overlap with items sold by other vendors. Our non-duplication policy applies to branded, commercially made wholesale branded items which are only allowed to be sold by a single booth (i.e.. Lula Roe brand clothing or Scentsy brand candles.) For example, many vendors selling "outerwear", "face painting" or "CBD lotion" may be at the Festival, but 2 vendors both selling the exact same brand of commercially produced camping chair will not be allowed.***
