Special Events Festival Vendor Applications

Thank you for your interest in vending with The Villages Entertainment. We host multiple events each year and are always looking for new vendors. The following events are currently accepting applications. Please take a moment to read the guidelines for each event before applying for the event. 

Once you apply for the event you will receive an email with further instructions. Please remember that space is very limited and we are unable to accept all who apply. A rejection from one event does not mean you will be rejected from another. We encourage you to apply to all events that you are interested in participating.
