Music Vendor

Northern Lights Bluegrass has a unique opportunity for special vendors that other festivals just cannot match. Do you specialize in music-related goods focused on a unique buyer? Custom products that are music-focused are encouraged.

Our music festival strives to be an environment that attracts fans of music and those interested in music culture and phenomena.

As a Vendor with music interests, you will be encouraged to have your vendor booth operational for 6 PM August 18, 2023. Our musical vendors will be housed in a beautiful roomy facility named The Jack Millikin Centre, which is secured during main stage down time. Our vendors are normally open during main stage running hours.

Food Vendor

Northern Lights strives to keep our festival local and encourage local food vendors to submit an email if they wish to be a vendor at one of our several on-site festival locations.

As a food vendor, we will encourage you to be ready to start serving food on August 18, 2023, at noon to our Camp participants that are staying for the Festival and may not have provisions. Gates open at noon and festival attendees are on the grounds.

Merchandise Vendor

We encourage all vendors to apply early as we will not allow more than 1 vendor offering the same products.
