Welcome to the 21st Annual Blackberry Festival. We look forward to seeing vendors that are returning for another year and also to meeting new vendors. Our goal is to put on the best festival possible. So, we want you to be successful and feel that you made a good choice in selecting the Bremerton Blackberry Festival to spend your Labor Day weekend.
We work hard at not duplicating the main items that are sold at our festival. In order to do this, we must have your cooperation in listing every item you sell.
Each year we must follow new
rules and regulations by the Fire Marshall and Police Departments and of course, the insurance companies. That is why our application has grown from one sheet of paper to both sides of five sheets. We ask that you read your application very carefully and follow specific directions. Sending in your completed form will avoid any delay in our meeting your selection of booth space or electrical needs.
The Hampton Inn offers a "berry" good discount to all blackberry vendors. Be sure to pre-register with the hotel so they will have a room set aside for you when you arrive.
You will receive acceptance confirmation as a vendor as soon as all paperwork has been processed and a committee of four decides on the best location for you based on your requests, available space and your electrical needs.
In August you will receive additional information regarding best times of arrival, a parking pass, if requested, and other necessary details.
Please keep in mind that our office gets busier as we get closer to the festival dates. So call if you have the need, and leave a message on our event line. Your call will be returned as soon as possible, but please be patient about any delay.
Through our website we will keep you updated on any changes as soon as they come to our attention.
