Become a Vendor

Thank you for your interest in the Brevard Renaissance Fair! This highly anticipated and increasingly popular event will enchant Brevard County, Florida, for six consecutive weekends: Jan. 18, 19, 20, 25, 26, Feb. 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, 16, 22, and 23.

Artisans and craftspeople are invited to display their finest talents and wares and join our list of actors, musicians, and street performers for a journey back to the days of brave knights and fair maidens.

The Fair will be held on Saturday/Sunday, MLK Day, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., and Education Day from 9 to 4.

All vendors must follow the Fair guidelines detailed in the requirements and application. Education and entertainment are both extremely important to us and must show in your displays and interaction.

Help us celebrate by creating an engrossing cultural experience that will immerse our patrons into the world of medieval Europe as soon as they enter our gates.

So, join us!
