Vendors— Lake Erie Literary Festival

The Lake Erie Literary Festival is proud to host both vendors and organizations that support human creations and the literary arts. If you’re a vendor or an organization, we’d love to have you!

General Information

    • The Lit Fest is welcoming vendors of all things literary. This includes local small businesses and organizations.

    • In the event of rain, the Lit Fest will resume at the “rain location” - to be announced closer to the event.

    • Vendors within reasonable driving distance of the festival are welcome to apply to vend at the Lit Fest.

    • The vending fee is $25. Vendors are asked to bring their own desired materials (including tent, tables, and chairs.)

    • The Literary Festival reserves the right to decline any application for any reason.

  • If you have questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to reach out to Christine at cmgerlock@hotmail.com

Vendor FAQ

  • Vendors will be instructed on load-in, but parking during the festival will be available along the side of the road and in the neighboring streets.

  • There should be, but in the case of food truck cancellations, I suggest bringing snacks or even a small cooler.

  • Vendors will be given an option to pay $125 for a tent, table, and chairs. Vendors with their own supplies will only be required to pay $25.

  • Vendors will be responsible for collecting payment at their stations. We recommend having both cash and card options. Vendors will also be responsible for their own sales tax.
