TBFC is seeking high-quality, hand-crafted and local products. Made and created, preferably, by the artisan who is selling them. We also welcome music outlets to showcase instruments and accessories, locally made or otherwise, that support musicians at the festival. Other vendors will be considered on a case by case basis.

Step 2: Once your participation has been approved (via email), you will receive a link from TBFC to pay your booth fee.
Step 3: Each booth will be given two (2) vendor/exhibitor entries. Any additional entries for staff and volunteers for your booth will need to be purchased at a reduced rate. We will send all approved vendors/exhibitors a reduced price code for additional booth assistants. Approved Vendors/exhibitors will also receive maps and instructions concerning set-up times and festival procedures. Please be aware, this is a full day festival with vendors setting up early in the morning (6-7am) and staying through to the end of the concert line-up (7-8pm).
