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!

    Thank you this really helps! I’d love to be able to fill my schedule with events that have 20k-50k attendants. We seem to do really well at music festivals and any festival that is focused on shopping or the outdoors. Harvest Fest in Waynesville, Merle Fest and Bridge Day in WV are some of the big ones that went really well for us. Are there any in the area that you’d suggest checking out?
