Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at blueridgeevents@protonmail.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Blue Ridge Artisan Days welcomes artisans, makers, creators, and small-business owners offering a wide variety of products. Applications are reviewed with the overall market in mind as we work to create a balanced and interesting shopping experience. 


Absolutely! Our Vendor Application allows you to select all of the upcoming Blue Ridge Artisan Days events you're interested in. Each event is reviewed individually based on availability and the overall vendor mix. 


No. Submitting a Vendor Application is the first step and does not guarantee acceptance or reserve a booth. If you're accepted for an event, you'll receive an event-specific Vendor Contract to continue the reservation process. 


Booth fees vary depending on the event and booth size selected. Current booth options and pricing are provided when you apply, so you'll know the cost before committing to an event. 


 A non-refundable Reservation Deposit is required when submitting your Vendor Contract and is applied toward your total booth fee—it is not an additional fee. Your contract and deposit secure your space for that event. 


Tables, chairs, and electricity are available at many of our venues and may be added when offered for a particular event. Available options and any associated costs are listed in the event-specific Vendor Contract. 


You're welcome to share a booth request, and we'll take it into consideration when creating the floor plan. Specific booth locations cannot be guaranteed, as assignments are made based on the overall layout and needs of the event. 


Yes. We don't necessarily limit an event to one business within a particular category, but we do work to avoid excessive duplication. Our goal is a balanced market that offers shoppers variety while giving participating businesses an opportunity to stand out.
