Food Vendors

This application is for vendors selling food primarily for consumption at the festival. It includes food trucks, trailers, tents or carts. We are still working on this years festival details.  The complaint that we received last year was that there were not enough potato related foods, items or activities. So we are asking our vendors to consider selling or decorating something "potato" related.    We may even have a contest for this! The vendor application deadline is March 15,2023 11:59 pm. Any vendor applying after this time will be charged and additional $20.00 The Booth fee includes the City of Decherd Event Permit for vendors.  If you already have an Annual Decherd Vendor Permit please select the pricing (Permit NOT INCLUDED) that provides a $25 credit.  All vendors are required to have the permit on site and can expect a visit the morning of the festival from a city code enforcement officer verifying permits.  All vendors receiving the one day Event Permit will be given their permit at vendor check-in.  Details for the vendor check-in process will be emailed to you 10 days before the event.   BOOTH FEES ARE NON-REFUNDABLE DUE TO NO SHOW OR RAIN.  If the festival is canceled due to COVID or dangerous weather, booth fees can be applied to next years event, refunded or considered a donation to the Old Town Decherd Merchants Association. Once you click on the Start Application button if you do not have an account set-up with Eventeny, you will need to create one.  This process will request that you enter a payment method.  You will not be charged anything until your application has been approved.  Booth prices are listed below. You will be charged for the booth selected AND a 6% processing fee. Special booth space and special needs requests will be accepted but are not guaranteed. We will make every effort to meet all special requests on a first come, first served basis. Additional charges may apply. Please include all booth requests on the registration form. NO ELECTRICITY WILL BE PROVIDED TO VENDORS. GENERATORS ARE ACCEPTABLE BUT MUST BE QUIET.
 This is an electronic agreement and by making payment, you are validating and approving this agreement electronically.
