The Springfest Market has been developed to provide a vibrant space for businesses, artisans, and food vendors to showcase and sell their products to the Southport community and festival visitors. The Springfest Market aims to encourage participation from existing Southport businesses, support local entrepreneurs, and promote community engagement. While we encourage local artisans to showcase their offerings, products sold at the festival do not have to be handmade. Preference will be given to vendors who are existing Southport businesses.
