Vendor Application | Juneteenth Celebration 2026

Little Elm’s Juneteenth Celebration returns on Friday, June 19, 2026, from 6:30 to 10:00 p.m. at The Lawn at Little Elm Park.

This community event honors freedom, culture, and heritage while bringing residents and visitors together for an evening of connection, celebration, and reflection.

Since its beginning in 2023, the event has grown into a meaningful and vibrant community gathering rooted in the significance of Juneteenth.

The event features a curated vendor market, live music from the David Whiteman Band, a video message from Opal Lee, and remarks from the Juneteenth committee.

Vendors play an essential role in the experience. The vendor market is intentionally curated to highlight and support Black-owned businesses, while also welcoming vendors whose products, services, and mission align with the purpose and cultural significance of Juneteenth.

With an expected attendance of 500 guests, this is a unique opportunity to showcase your business and be part of a meaningful, growing event in Little Elm.

Vendors are encouraged to create an engaging, welcoming experience that reflects the spirit of Juneteenth and enhances the overall atmosphere of the event.
