VENDORS
If you are interested in participating as a food or merchandise vendor, download the vendor HERE. We are heavily seeking Celtic food & merchandise vendors. Due to the cultural aspect of this event, preference will be given to merchants offering items to be Scottish, Irish, Celtic or Scots-Irish in nature or relate to the British Isles in some way. Craft items should relate to the British Isles or resemble a craft that the settlers from that area would have practiced, such as pottery, weaving, metalwork, needlework, woodcarving, etc. We will be limiting the number of non-Celtic food & merchandise vendors. Deadline to submit vendor application: Friday, October 20, 2017. All applications will be reviewed. All vendors will be notified and will be advised whether their application has been accepted or declined.
Event Planning is currently underway for Feis Chlobhair. This page will be updated as soon as entertainments and features are confirmed. Make sure to continue to visit us as we update this page!
