Are you a food vendor? 

Do you offer unique retail items? 

Do you have a service that you would like to gain exposure for? 

Are you a distiller, brewer, craft beverage manufacturer or a Hudson Valley Handmade Artisan? 

Then we invite you to be considered as vendor for the Hudson Valley Hot-Air Balloon Festival.

The festival attracts over 20,000 visitors from all over the northeast and we are offering this exclusive opportunity to reach a large audience for vendors. 

We are now accepting applications for:

FOOD VENDORS

RETAIL/PROMO VENDORS

CRAFT BEVERAGE MANUFACTURERS

HUDSON VALLEY HANDMADE ARTISANS

We will be monitoring the amount of vendors in categories selling the same item to prevent excessive competition.

Once you have submitted your application and payment with deposit, we will hold a space for you.  We will not hold any spaces without full payment.  We do not offer exclusivity on any categories, but we do limit the number of vendors selling the same items to the best of our ability.  Food vendors applying to serve breakfast will be chosen on a first-come first-serve basis and will be limited.

PLEASE READ BEFORE SUBMITTING YOUR APPLICATION: 

All vendors are required upon submitting their completed application, to confirm that they have read, understand, and will abide by the Vendor Handbook. To read and print the Vendor Handbook CLICK HERE.
