Merchant's Application

Thank you for your interest in the 2022 Maiden Faire Renaissance Festival. We are thrilled that you wish to present your wares to our patrons during the 2022 season. During our inaugural season in 2021, 1561 patrons attended. The popularity of the festival is already growing - and a blooming interest has been seen in the days since the festival, with many patrons messaging us about purchasing tickets for the 2022 season, including group events, as well as performers and vendors contacting us with a desire to be included. We have opened ticket pre-sales for those patrons who have inquired and we're already well on our way to soar past 2021 patron count. We expect anywhere from 3,000 to 4,000 patrons minimum.
