This annual event is always the 2nd Saturday in September and offers fun for the whole family. Vendor registration is open year round, and we have some pretty awesome people and businesses that set up for the event. If you are interested in being a vendor, check out the info below!
- Vendor spaces are 12 ft wide by 15 ft deep. Depth is measures from the curb to out into the street. If your area exceeds this, then you need to purchase multiple booths. For example, if your food truck is 15ft long - when parked parallel to the curb (even with the hitch) you need 2 spots.
- We do offer vendor discounts with an Emporia Main Street Membership. Membership must be paid/up to date when you register. For more information on membership, click HERE. If you plan on attending more than one of our events, you might consider membership.
- Vendor set up must be completed before 6:30 a.m. All vehicles (including those that pull trailers) must be off the street by 6:30 a.m. Vehicles will not be allowed back on the street until the conclusion of the event.
