Vendor booths are assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. You may indicate your location preference on your application, or call the Chamber to let staff know, and we will do our best to meet your request; however, booth locations are not guaranteed. Paid returning vendors are offered seniority over booth spaces they currently utilize.

The Festival Committee will be working on booth assignments in July. Each vendor will receive an email with their booth number and instructions to log into their vendor portal. The vendor portal is where vendors will find all the info needed prior to, during, and after the festival. If you have not received the email with your booth assignment and vendor portal instructions by August 1st, please email Rose at rhall@bluespringschamber.com with your booth name and updated contact information.

For applications submitted after July 29, the festival committee will review applications and send vendor/placement information within 10 days. If you have questions, email Rose at rhall@bluespringschamber.com or call the Chamber office at 816-229-8558.

Vendors are required to attend & staff their booths during festival hours on all 3 days. If a vendor shuts down their booth early or arrives late, they are at risk for not returning the following year.
