IMPORTANT - READ!!!

As it has been for the past 5 years - Downtown Lake Stevens is still undergoing active construction. That construction WILL change the setup of the vendors. The number of vendors allowed and location of vendors has not been determined at this time. Those decisions will be made as we get closer to festival time hopefully in June or the first week of July. DO NOT request the same spot you had before - it doesn't exist!

Vendor Information

We anticipate Returning vendors applications will be open on March 15th, 2022. Returning vendor applications will be open until April 1st at which time vendor applications will be open to all.
 
The new pavilion in downtown Lake Stevens; The Mill and the new surrounding plaza will be used for vendors this year. We are excited to see how we will use this area to enhance the Aquafest experience. Part of the "plaza" is  known as "Mill Spur" which the new festival street. It is under construction now and should be ready before Aquafest.

Prior year vendors responding by April 1, 2022 will receive priority acceptance and space assignment.  After April 1, 2022 all applicants will be included as first come, first served.

Vendor Selection Criteria

The number of years you have been an Aquafest Vendor is NOT a guarantee of acceptance.

  1. 2019 Vendors have first opportunity to retain their space.

  2. Aquafest reserves the right to determine exclusivity of the food items being sold.

  3. Aquafest reserves the right to determine the difference between identical food items and items that are only similar. 

  4. Aquafest will try to minimize duplicate crafts and art. It will be the sole discretion of Aquafest to determine this.  This is a juried show.

  5. Electrical requirements are limited and may restrict the location of the booths. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD ANY VENDOR SET UP THEIR OWN ELECTRICAL. More on electrical services will be provided when changing conditions are known.
