Welcome Vendor!
LaBelle Downtown Revitalization Corporation (LDRC) and Railway Knives have partnered to bring the Inaugural Forge Under the Oaks to Downtown LaBelle! We are looking forward to this new festival. Railway Knives has graciously agreed to add one of our favorite events, the Annual Howl-O-Ween and Downtown Doxie Dash, to the festivities.
Forge Under the Oaks, featuring Howl-O-Ween will be held on Saturday, October 19, 2024, from 9 a.m. to 4:00 p.m in Barron Park.
Barron Park is located at 1559 DeSoto Ave, LaBelle, FL 33935.
Be a vendor at this new fundraising event!
We welcome all artists, crafters, food trucks (we are looking for one that is hot dog-specific), unique pets, and, of course, racing wiener dogs and wiener wannabes!
BLACKSMITH VENDORS - We would LOVE for you to bring your forges to demonstrate your craft for no additional charge! Please indicate on the application form if you would like to have space to bring your forge, hammer, and anvil.
Setup times: Setup starts at 6am. You must be set up with your vehicle from the festival area by 8:30am.
The event begins at 9am and ends at 4:00pm. Please make every attempt to stay open for the entire event.
We allow the option to set up on Friday from 4 to 7pm The Hendry County Sheriff's Office will patrol the area to prevent tampering with booths.
Vendor Fee: $50 for a 10x10 booth space. Payment MUST be made in advance.
LDRC uses Eventeny for vendor processing, which uses Stripe. We know competition is tough for vendors, and we will do our best to avoid duplicate vendors. Please list your goods in the application so we know what you offer. LDRC will provide a map with your booth location the week of the event.
Vendors must bring their own tents, tables, or chairs. Barron Park has very few electricity outlets. If you need electricity, please note that on the application. Booth space with electricity is available on a first-come, first-served basis.
