2024 VENDOR INFORMATION
The 40th Annual Freedom Rally is July 3 - 6, 2024. While most of our vendors return year after year, we do sometimes have openings available.
​
What does it cost a vendor to sell at the Rally? A $400.00 non-refundable space rental fee is payable when a vendor submits a signed contract for review and signature. In addition, there is a percentage fee based on the vendor’s gross sales made while on the Rally grounds (10% for merchandise vendors, 15% for food vendors, and tattoo artists). The percentage of gross sales payment must be made before leaving the rally grounds at the end of the Rally.
​
We try to make every effort to provide reasonable space for the vendor to conduct business, including a reasonably sized housing unit (RV, trailer, or tent no longer than 40 feet) and one stationary vehicle. All other vendor-vehicles will park in a vendor parking area at no charge. Any space over 40 X 30 feet costs $.25 (twenty-five cents) per square foot. If the vendors' requirements are reasonable, electricity will be provided as part of the contract, as will water and trash removal.
​
The number of employees allowed at the Rally as part of the contract is restricted depending on the type of business. Any additional employees must pay the same admission as our guests. No one under the age of 18 is allowed at the Rally. NO EXCEPTIONS. ID is required upon entry.
​
As part of their contract, food vendors must provide a detailed list of the prices of the food they intend to sell to be assured that we offer our guests various foods. We reserve the right to disallow any food item. Merchandise vendors must also provide a detailed list of the type of merchandise they sell.
