Festival vending and questions about tents!

[Former_Member]

So the items I sell really cater to festival goers. I have vended at festivals before, only selling just artwork, this time around I'm much more confident with the new additions to my product line. Now, down to the questions:
1. Has anyone here vended at music festival type events over the summer, if so can you share your experience?
2. The shade tent! I have used EZ-up in the past and it tents to not be sturdy enough, I've had a few that were about to take flight even though I staked them. If you can recommend a diesel one that works that would be lovely or a good method for keeping the tent strapped to the Earth.
Thanks all!

You might want to check out the "Craft fairs... It's a living!" team. Everyone there does craft fairs and someone would probably be able to answer your tent questions!

As for me, I avoid outside shows at the moment since I haven't bought a tent yet...

Cindy is correct. If you travel down a few steps and join "craft shows......it's a living" many of your show event questions can be found. Discussions. Click and scroll all the threads that discuss all aspects of the show business.

Canopies, weights, venues, participating, jury process, booth layout, displays, customer service, vendor neighbor's, wardrobe, weather, and searching for events to apply.
