I have been vending at festivals and events for two years now and I feel like the hardest part is finding events that are worth attending. Google search results are just not specific enough these days. Google shows everything from huge music festivals to small local farmers markets. My best luck has been word of mouth by asking other vendors at events that I attend if they know of any other big events in the area.

How do you find events/festivals that are worth attending? I’ve read suggestions to use festivalnet.com and fairsandfestivals.com but I haven’t tried them out yet.

Any suggestions are welcome, cheers!

    I sell eco-friendly apparel like beanies, hats, hoodies and shirts. I’m just outside of a decent sized city “Asheville, NC”. I’ve worked quite a few large events within a four hour drive from my home and it’s went incredibly well. Do you have any suggestions on how to find larger events?
