Have you participated in VegFest Colorado before? *
Are you available for both days of the festival? (Saturday July 27th from 10-6 and Sunday July 28th from 10-6.) *
For the success of the event and our vendors, we highly encourage you to participate in the full weekend! It's an incredible opportunity for vegan businesses to get their products in front of a large audience, and we want you to have an awesome event. However, we are happy to have you for one day (and cut the above stated fee in half).
If participating in both days, would you prefer to leave your booth/truck/trailer set up on-site overnight, if available? *
On-site security may be available for overnight set ups, but please be aware this cannot 100% guarantee the safety of your booth or vehicle, and VegFest Colorado, Indoor Cat Events, nor Auraria Campus can be held liable if anything should happen to your products/display/vehicle/property if left overnight. Appropriate precautions should still be taken to make sure any valuable or irreplaceable items are not left overnight
What is your primary business offering? *
If you are not sure about which option to select, please reach out at hello@vegfestco.com.
If you are a food truck or other food vendor (packaged/bakery), what is your primary offering? *
Please choose what best describes your main menu items.
Once your business is approved, you will receive an invoice via email detailing your vendor fees for participation. Vendor fees are variable ($100-$450 for the weekend, half if only participating for 1 day) based on the type of vendor and goods sold.  *
If you are a food truck or cart, what are your total dimensions? (If this does not apply, please put NA.) *
If you are a food truck or other RTE food vendor, what is your service capacity per day? (If this does not apply, please put NA.) *
If you are a food truck or other RTE food vendor, are you planning to send an employee to restock after selling out of key items?  *
Please note that while we encourage vendors to be heavily stocked for a busy weekend, there is no wrong answer here. We are trying to gauge the option for on-site storage and if vendors prefer to sell until end-of-day
If you are another type of vendor, please describe your setup. (If this does not apply, please put NA.) *
Do you have a table, 10x10 tent, booth, a push cart, something totally different? Let us know! Please share a description and dimensions with as much detail as possible. This is a huge help in mapping our vendor placement. 
If you are an outdoor vendor and NOT a food truck/trailer, do you need a larger booth than 10x10? *
If you said yes, what size booth do you need? *
If you said no or this does not apply, please put N/A.
All outdoor vendors (except for food trucks/carts) will be permitted to set up a 10x10 vending booth and all indoor vendors will be permitted to set up a 6-10 foot table booth. If you need additional space, this may incur an additional fee. Operating outside the limits of these dimensions without disclosure, consent or payment may result in additional fees, fines, and potential expulsion from the event.  *
This year's event will be mainly centered around Auraria's large outdoor Tivoli Quad as well as two spaces indoors. We have rented an additional room so that vendors will not be sharing space with speakers this year. Vendors will be assigned their space based on a first-come/first-serve basis according to vendor needs. Your preference below can not be guaranteed. 

Indoor spaces incur an additional $25 convenience fee for the added relief from sun exposure & a temperature controlled environment. Please note that indoor vendors should expect to have less space than they would if set up outside (6-10 foot table vs. 10x10 tent, etc.). Vendors must provide their own tables.
*
If you are a 10x10 vendor set up outside, you are required to weight each tent leg with a minimum of 40 lbs without exception. This is a safety measure for both you and anyone in the surrounding area. Failure to do so maybe require you to shut down for the day or until you can get the appropriate tent weights. *
What are your electrical needs? Please be as specific as possible. (If you don't need access to electricity or if you plan to operate via generator, please put NA.) *
Please share how many amps/outlets and voltage. Electrical hookups are limited.
Please note: Most vendors will be required to provide a certificate of insurance and a department of health certification in order to participate. No vendor can be accepted to participate without all applicable documents (including general liability insurance, current sales tax licenses(s), current temporary food retail license, etc.). *
If you are not sure which additional documents apply to you and your business, please reach out to hello@vegfestco.com.
VegFest Colorado is a zero-waste event. We will have available receptacles for compost and recyclable content ONLY. Please acknowledge that you agree to use compostable and recyclable materials and pack out any other materials when you exit the premises. *
