We are excited to announce that we have partnered with WWOZ with the stage on Cadiz Street and they will be broadcasting live to the world from that stage! We will update Facebook and Twitter with more exciting news as it becomes available.
Vendors, it is time to request a booth for the Festival.
Vendors spaces for the Festival are 10′ X 10′. There is no electricity. You cannot use gas generators at the Festival. If you have a low sound/fume generator, it can be used with prior approval from the Festival staff. All vendor tents will be touching another tent, so you must be self contained in your 10 x 10 space.
You must have an occupational license from the City of New Orleans. If you don’t already have one, you can obtain one from City Hall. It is $50 and lasts for one calendar year and is good for any event for which you vend at in the City. Freret is a Arts and Culture zone in the City, so you are not required to pay taxes on any original art sold at the Festival, but you must have a license. You also must have an inspected fire extinguisher in your booth at all times during the Festival. Non-food vendors must have a 20# fire extinguisher and food vendors must have a 30# fire extinguisher. All propane tanks must be chained down to something during the entire Festival.
Vendor fees for the Festival are $200 for hot food vendors and $150 for all other vendors. There is no non-profit discount for the Festival.
Do not pay any fees until you receive a confirmation email.
Last year, we had over 23,000 people attend the Festival over the 6 hours. We expect more visitors this year with the extended size, time and publicity.
If you are a BAND an want to be considered for the Festival, please send an email to freretmarket@gmail.com.
Thank you!
Thanks to the vendors and 23,800 visitors who came out for our 2013 event. This year, we are adding a fifth stage of music and longer hours: 11am-7pm. Stay tuned for additional details.
