Second queue are Others. This list will include vendors with missing information, missing or incorrect COI, booth fees payment pending, and or camping registration/payment pending. Once all of your booth fees are paid in full, your status has been processed and cleared, then you can be checked-in for booth placement, camping, photo I.D. and Parking Passes.

Pass, the Booth must have completed the steps above, Vendor must have paid all fees due, and submitted the necessary information on their employee’s. Anyone seeking to obtain an ID-Badge must bring their State-Issued Driver’s License or a State-Issued ID to Admin Office. No State ID.......No Festival ID-Badge!
