Overview of Event
The Seafood Fest is an outdoor event celebrating a variety of local seafood options and family fun hosted at the Waterford Lakes Town Center in Orlando. This event is free to the public and is hosted on Saturday, November 9, 2024, from 12:00-6:00 pm in the parking lot in front of Regal Cinemas.
The Seafood Fest replaces the 20+ year Taste of Orlando event. We anticipate 6,000+ people to attend. Because the mall's focus is on families, no alcohol is allowed at the event!
Required Items for Application Submission
The following items are due when the application is submitted.
The following items are due 60 days before the event (by Sept. 9, 2024).
DBPR will be inspecting vendors the morning of the event. If you do not have a temporary event license, you will be subject to the fee. To learn more and view accepted payment options, visit https://www2.myfloridalicense.com/hotels-restaurants/licensing/temporaryevent-guide/
It is the vendor’s responsibility to obtain all appropriate licenses required by Orange County and the State of Florida. A reminder email will be sent in August. When applying, please ensure that you will have the licenses and insurance required as vendor fees are non-refundable if a vendor cancels for any reason.
Food Vendor Fees (Non-Refundable)
Vendor fees are based on the space size as follows:
* 10’ x 10’ - $200 * 10’ x 15’ - $225 * 10’ x 20’ - $250
* 10’ x 25’ - $275 * 10’ x 30’ - $300 * 10’ x 35’ - $325
Menu Requirements
At least 75% of the food items on the menu must be seafood items (this does not apply to dessert or beverage vendors). We do not offer exclusivity. All drinks other than water, soda, and sports drinks must be listed and are subject to approval.
Only the items submitted and approved can be sold. Any menu changes must be submitted for approval in writing at least 30 days before the event. If a vendor has items for sale that were not previously submitted/approved, you will be required to remove those items from your menu.
Vendor Set Up/Breakdown
Set up is from 9:45-11:45 am. The event is open from 12:00-6:00 pm. Breakdown is from 6:00-7:00 pm. The parking lot must be completely clear by 7:30 pm. All trailers must be dropped.
Vendors are required to remain set up for the duration of the event, even if you sell out. This is to ensure that the event remains full the whole time and doesn't confuse other vendors or guests who may see a vendor leaving and think the event is ending early.
If you sell out and would like to walk away from your booth, please close your window (or lower your tent legs) and put up a "Sold Out" sign.
Vendor Location
Please review the 11-9 Layout. Food trucks/trailers will park in the yellow areas of the parking lot. Spaces are first come, first served. Food tents may be placed in the food truck area or in the numbered spaces, depending on available space.
Power/Water
Food vendors must be self-sufficient; Electricity and Water will not be supplied.

This event is free to the public and hosted on Saturday, November 9, 2024, from 12:00-6:00 pm. The event takes place in the parking lot in front of Regal Cinemas.
Similar to our Expos, businesses are onsite showcasing local products, services, and resources for families. Vendors offering unique and handcrafted items will also be onsite. This event is an outstanding opportunity for sponsor branding, marketing, product or service showcase, cross-promotion, and a powerful vehicle for positive community influence.
We anticipate 6,000+ people to attend the Seafood Fest. Because our focus is on families, no alcohol is allowed at our events!
Our mission is to provide a way for local businesses to promote themselves and what they do to their local community. Providing a quality experience to both the exhibitor and the consumer is the principal to every show. We connect businesses with consumers in their target markets. Every show is created with that concept in mind.
The East Orlando Seafood Fest is heavily promoted using a combination of radio, print, digital and social media advertising. Waterford Lakes Town Center will also be promoting the event via center wide advertisements & email blasts.
Our events are different because we do not charge an admission fee or for the fun activities onsite whereas other shows charge $10 or more per person just to enter. We want our attendees to focus on our sponsors and vendors and have a great time at the event.
These events are big draws. Our attendees love participating in and watching them, and they provide a great opportunity for media exposure prior to and during the event. You can sponsor the photo booth, balloon twister, face painting, reptile petting zoo and more.
