Calling all concessionaires and commercial vendors: we've got indoor and outdoor space for you. Take a look at our instructions and application below and be part of the hottest festival in the Triangle!
Registration is OPEN for indoor and outdoor vendors. DEADLINE: MARCH 1, 2025
Concession and Commercial Vendor Application
Applications are for consideration of space only, and do not guarantee you a location in the festival. Space is in great demand with very low turnover. If chosen to be part of the Got to Be NC Festival, you will be notified by telephone. We are looking for products that we do not have at the festival; something different, unique and attractively presented. No further communication will be exchanged with you until or unless an opportunity presents itself.
Due to the volume of applications, we receive for vendor/exhibitor space, we ask for all applications and color photos of your booth set-up to be mailed to Letrice Midgett, 1010 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699. Photo(s)/Samples of your product will not be returned.
