Vendor Frequently Asked Questions

What is the expected attendance for the festival?

While this is our first annual festival, we are actively promoting the event throughout Modesto and the Central Valley. We anticipate a strong turnout of families, music and dance enthusiasts, and community members eager to celebrate Latin culture. Specific numbers are hard to predict for a first-year event, but Graceada Park is a popular venue known for drawing large crowds.

Is electricity or water provided at the booth sites?

Limited access to electricity may be available for an additional fee and must be requested in advance via the application. Availability is not guaranteed, and vendors requiring power should indicate their needs clearly. Water access is generally not provided at individual booth sites; please plan accordingly.

What are the specific setup and breakdown times for vendors?

Vendor setup will be on Saturday, August 23, 2025, from 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM. All vehicles must be clear of the main festival grounds by 10:30 AM. Teardown can begin only after the festival officially closes to the public at 5:00 PM and must be completed by 7:00 PM.

Vendor fees are non-refundable after [Insert Your Cancellation Deadline Here, e.g., August 10, 2025]. If you need to cancel your participation before this date, please contact us as soon as possible.

Can I share a booth space with another vendor?

Booth sharing requests may be considered on a case-by-case basis and must be pre-approved by the festival organizers. Please detail your request in your application or contact us directly to discuss possibilities. Additional fees or specific conditions may apply if sharing is approved.

What kind of security will be available?

Festival staff and designated security personnel will be present on-site throughout the event to ensure a safe environment for all attendees and participants.
