Now that COVID restrictions have been lifted, there are numerous opportunities for you to sell in person this summer and into the fall.
To find local selling events, use Eventbrite. Type in keywords such as, “popup shop”, “festival”, “flea market”, “farmers market”, “trade show“. They do tend to book months in advance so get going!
If you can’t afford a booth or stand on your own, go in with another local but non-competitive business.
If you wish to travel, there are large national festivals you can sell at, but it would be the most beneficial if your target market is the main audience.
For example, Bonnaroo is a large music festival held every June in Tennessee, ideal for people selling bohemian inspired fashion and decor. They offer various onsite selling opportunities, such as a 10 x10 artist/crafter space in the main venue for four days for US$1,500, and they expect 80,000+ people to attend.
The Telluride Yoga Festival in June in Colorado is ideal for anyone selling yoga or wellness products, but they like artisans as well. The cost is $450 for a shared space of two vendors. It’s also a great way to write-off a summer vacation 🙂
