BE PART OF OUR LINEUP:
It wouldn’t be Lynchburg Music Fest without our vendors. We are looking to welcome vendors into the new Lynchburg Music Fest family because they are so important in creating the right environment, with that being said, we have to choose with care. We can’t accept everyone who wants to vend with us and our guidelines are fairly strict. However, we anticipate that our vendors find it’s worth it to work with us. You’ll reach a large audience with money to spend
WHAT WE LOOK FOR IN OUR VENDORS:
Products. Our attendees love high-quality, handmade, and local products. We are not local-only or handmade-only; however, if your company has an eco-friendly philosophy, so much the better.
Food. We only allow the sale of alcohol, iced tea, soda, and bottled water through the festival itself. We rely on our vendors to provide a diverse menu of other high-quality food and beverage options. Those who include vegetarian fare will be given priority.
Presentation. The atmosphere is so important that we’re selective about vendor booth presentation. We’re looking for companies that project an image that’s unique, creative, clever, maybe a little off-beat and quirky-but also high-end. We aren’t looking for a “carnival” or “fairground” vibe.
Attitude. If your staff is made up of professional, friendly individuals who are passionate music lovers themselves, that’s the ideal situation. Your staff will have fun at the festival, and it will show.
Experience. We prefer vendors who have done this kind of thing before. If this is your first time and you’re a great fit for us, we may take you on anyway. We do ask that you read the guidelines carefully and come prepared.
