2026 Shenandoah Valley Fiber Festival

Priority of acceptance to the SVFF (and space assignment) is given to 2025 Returning Vendors, provided applications are received within the listed deadlines. Applicants, including Returning Vendors who did not participate in 2025, will be juried by the SVFF Board prior to acceptance. Photos MUST be submitted of a representation of the goods you plan to sell. Ideally, a photo of your booth display from another festival would be included. Acceptance will mainly be dependent on space available and diversity of products offered compared to existing vendors. Vendors must sell products that support the fiber arts. Please also tell us what other shows you plan to attend as a vendor, and booth location, if known. New Approved Vendors will likely be placed in outdoor, uncovered spaces. Please do not apply to the festival if you are not prepared to bring/rent a tent for your space. In some cases, we can place you in a covered barn/pavilion. Deadlines:

• Returning 2025 Vendors application deadline to reserve the same spot as 2025: 1/15/26
• Application closes: 9/26/26 (may remain open for food vendors, or as space allows for new fiber arts vendors)
• 2026 Vendors selected (barring last-minute vendor emergencies and additional food vendors): 8/15/26
• Deadline to pay invoices: 14 days from the invoice date. Please let us know if you intend to mail a check or would like to pay by credit card over the phone. We prefer you click the link in your invoice and pay! If 14 days is a problem, please let us know - we are very understanding, as long as you communicate with us.
• Ad copy deadline: 9/1/26

Spaces are each 10'x10'. Prices for each location are as follows (not including Stripe fees): Outdoor (BYO-Tent) - $110, Covered Barn/Pavilion - $130, Indoor Building - $155. Please refer to the 2025 map to see our space arrangement: https://www.eventeny.com/events/map/?id=3740&mid=4970

*Vendors who canceled for 2025 due to emergencies - depending on your specifications, your spaces may have been held for you for 2026, but you MUST meet the above deadlines. Vendors who took over canceled spaces have the right of first refusal on those spaces if they are not taken back. Vendors who took over canceled spaces in 2025 and do not get to keep those spaces are at the top of the waiting list for those types of spaces in 2026. This is called the First Priority Scenario.
 
**Returning Vendors who request a new space - these waitlists are first-come, first-served with some limitations, so please do not wait to apply! We note the date and time of your application.
Second Priority Scenario - waitlist to a different area:
To go outdoors - expected to be able to do this in most, if not all cases.
To go to a covered barn/pavilion - this can often happen.
To go indoors - rare, but it does happen! These would likely only be assigned as single space.
 
Third Priority Scenario - waitlist to expand current spaces:
Outdoors - expected to be able to do this in most, if not all cases.
Covered barn/pavilion - this can often happen, but possibly in a different location/barn/pavilion.
Indoor spaces - this is VERY RARE.
