Please note: Jewelry, soap, baked goods, candles, specialty items will likely be filled quickly. If you are not selected, your information will be stored on our main data base for future events.

It's important to note that being a vendor at an event does not automatically enroll you for subsequent dates. Each event date requires a separate application; prior participation does not guarantee acceptance. We limit the number of vendors in each category to ensure a diverse and rotating selection for our visitors each month. Some exception may apply depending the event type and theme. Please be aware that Main Street Fayetteville has the authority to disallow any vendor found in violation of city codes, rules, public safety, or deemed inappropriate. Vendors offering food services, including food trucks and homemade food items, must comply with state and county regulations, which include obtaining valid permits, such as cottage business permits, alcohol licenses, and passing health inspections. Food vendors specifically must obtain their permits from the Fayette County Department of Environmental Health (FCDEH), which is separate from City regulations. The FCDEH has the right to require a vendor to leave the event if the necessary permits are not obtained beforehand or if an inspection reveals unsafe handling, preparation, or serving of food or beverages. At the Festival of Arts, maximum of 65 of the finest local, regional and national artists, with an emphasis on Fayette County and Georgian artists. All artist applicants will be selected by a jury of their peers based on the merit of their work as well as booth presentation. Vendors will be contacted within 30 days of submitting your request. Vendors will receive an email if selected for each event, and a payment (credit/debit card/check) will be necessary to secure your spot once approved; the vendor fee is $50.00 per market. Vendors not selected for an event will be placed on the master vendor spreadsheet to be considered for future events. Requesting to be a vendor does not guarantee that you will be selected for an event. You are hand-selected depending on the event theme, type of event, and type of products.  Procedures: o Prospective vendors must complete an application on the Downtown Fayetteville website to be added to the vendor list. o Priority will be given to vendors operating within the City of Fayetteville or Fayette County. o Vendors shall be selected for events based on the type of event, capabilities of the vendor to provide the level of products and services for the event, and vendor availability. o When multiple vendors are available and equally qualified to provide products or services for an event, the vendor shall be selected on a rotating basis when possible and fall under the guidelines in this policy. o The City of Fayetteville/ and or Main Street Fayetteville may remove vendors from the master list based on, but not limited to:  Failure to show up at the approved event without notification or multiple events with notification.  Non-responsive to City notifications or information requests.  Arriving late or leaving early at a registered event.  Failure to provide products or services promised.  Selling products not included on the Vendor application.  Selling products that are illegal or not otherwise approved for legal sale.  Selling products that knowingly infringe upon copyrighted or patented items.  Displaying an abusive or disrespectful attitude towards the public, other vendors, city employees, or volunteers.
