2025 Food Vendor - CCP Festival

Vendor registration opens on March 1, 2025, and will remain open until all booth spaces are filled. Prospective vendors will have the opportunity to complete an application and join the waitlist after booth spaces are sold out if they wish to secure a potential booth space in the event that one becomes available. A notice will be added to this information section to inform those planning to apply when the application availability changes to “waitlist only”.

Credit card information will be collected at the time you submit your application. Your card will be charged upon approval to participate in the 2025 Carver County Pride Festival.
