As a business owner, arts and crafter, nonprofit or entrepreneur, have you ever considered the benefits of being a vendor at  mumfest? If not, perhaps it’s time to give it some serious thought!

WHY?

Mumfest is a signature award winning family event that attracts over 80,000 area residents and visitors to New Bern’s downtown streets and waterfront on the second full week of October. More than 300+ vendors participate in mumfest annually. 75% return year after year.

Vendor spaces are very affordable and provides the opportunity to:
·         Sell your product through direct sales.
·         Build name recognition for your company/organization.
·         Extend your marketing reach.
·         Showcase your service/mission/product to the general
          public.
·         Display your products in a highly trafficked midway area.

A sampling of the goods and services sold at the festival include, banking, home improvements, gourmet mixes and sauces, women and men’s clothing, hair, skin care and cosmetics, pet treats, sports memorabilia, hand crafted furniture, jewelry, outdoor furniture, pottery, plants, garden art, medical equipment, appliances, magazines and newspaper subscriptions, recreational  and sports equipment, kitchen gadgets, automobiles, fishing gear, power tools…the list goes on and on.

To explore this business opportunity, go to www.mumfest.com, click on the vendor application button in the upper right hand corner  and download an application from the category that applies to your business. All the information regarding fee, space sizes, set-up times, etc. is listed. If you have questions, call our office 252-638-5781. We are happy to talk with you and answer any questions you may have.

We look forward to seeing you at  mumfest.
