Souvenirs like our Restaurant Discount Card or T-shirts sold at the festival merchandise booth help fund the festival.
Festival Booths
Cultural Display, Activity, Food, Merchandise & Special Interest Booths located throughout the park are hosted by community organizations, individuals, professional vendors and businesses. In addition, festival organizers run several booths most of which are located near the fountain. These booths serve to raise funds to support the festival, offer activities and provide information or services to festival goers and participants.
