We want you to spend your time doing what you do best—serving great food and creating an awesome experience! Here’s your simple checklist to make sure you’re ready for The Great Feast™.

1. Make Your Booth Feast-Worthy

• Vendors are responsible for supplying and setting up their own booth.
• Booths should be 10 x 10, please contact The Great Feast™ team if larger booths are needed.
• Booths are required to have a cleanable ground covering such as mats, plywood, or another approved material beneath the food preparation and service area.
• Vendors on grass need to remove floor coverings at the end of each day.

• Decorate your booth to match the fun, family-friendly spirit of The Great Feast™.
