HDR Event Vendor Policies & Procedures:
- Vendor fee payments must be received prior to the event date
- In order to be refunded their vendor fee, vendors must notify HDR that they need to cancel their vendor space no less than 10 business days prior to the event date. Cancellation requests made after the 10 business day deadline will not be refunded.
- All tents must be weighted!
- All HDR events will be held rain or shine.
- Vendors are responsible for bringing their own tent, tables, chairs, tent weights, and any other items needed as part of an outdoor event.
- Applications are accepted and reviewed on a first come, first served basis.
- Activities and displays must be appropriately family-friendly. Vendors that refuse to adhere to this policy will be asked to leave the event.
- Each exhibitor is expected to clean up and dispose of their own trash throughout the day and before leaving. When you pack up your booth and leave the event, nothing should be left behind in your booth space.
- Vendor spaces are 10’x10′ and up to 20’x10′ for food truck and trailer vendors. If more space is needed, you must purchase an additional space. No vendor may exceed the limits of their issued vendor space.
Vendor Application Review:
- Applicants will be notified of their acceptance status within five business days of their submission.
- Please keep in mind that the mission of our organization centers around supporting small businesses located in Downtown Harrisonburg. If, upon review of your application, we find that your business is in direct, obvious competition with a business already located downtown, we may not be able to accept you as a vendor at our festivals.
Information for Food Vendors
- Applications must include a copy of your health permit.
- Food Vendors must adhere to the regulations of the Virginia Department of Health (VDH). Applicants are responsible for coordinating any permits required by VDH. To obtain a license, contact the Health Department.
- Vendors are responsible for all clean up and removal of items from their booth at the end of the night. Food vendors that leave food residue or oil spills will be charged for cleanup.
- Vendors must provide their own extension cords (if electricity is requested), etc.
2025 Vendor Applications
Food and retail vendors must fill out an application to be approved to participate in the following festivals.
