**Recent legislation passed by the Kentucky General Assembly expands the imposition of sales tax to a number of additional products and services. Among them, fees for space rentals at events such as ours are now subject to sales tax effective January 1, 2023. As a result, the total cost of your booth space will be subject to sales tax. Please send us a purchase exemption certificate if you will use your space exclusively for an exempt purpose.

Additional Fees:
Additional Tables and chairs are available for purchase with all booth types.  

Each vendor fee includes (4) entries into Kentuckiana Pride Festival. You will be able to purchase additional entries at a later date.
