Wichita Riverfest is in it's 48th year celebrating community. From the beginning, as part of the City’s Centennial celebration in 1970, the goal was to bring the entire community together, to build community pride and focus on Wichita’s beautiful natural resource, the Arkansas River.
Last year, more than 450,000 attended the week-long celebration!
This year, we're taking The Swing indoors to Century II's Exhibition Hall and will be popping-up during Riverfest on:
SATURDAY & SUNDAY, JUNE 1st & 2nd from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.
THIS APPLICATION IS FOR HANDMADE & VINTAGE VENDORS ONLY
BOOTHS WILL BE 10x10 and indoors.
BOOTH FEE IS $225.00 and will come with a Festival Button to enjoy the week-long festivities of Riverfest.

Established in 2011, The Swing brings a modern twist on a long-held tradition, striving to showcase the highest quality handmade goods. Buzzfeed selected us as one of the Top 35 Indie Craft Fairs in the World, too.
BOOTH SHARING:
If applying to share a booth, please note:
- Only two vendors per booth space. Vendors are not allowed to bring items from other vendors and sell them in their booths. Each vendor must sell ONLY what they handmake or repurpose; and
- Please have both vendors apply seperately.
Please complete this application fully and make sure you add a photo of your booth set up, along with your products.
<<< MAKER MUST BE PRESENT AT EVENT>>>
Applications will be individully reviewed and juried until we have reached our booth limit.
Booth fees will be due one week after you are accepted as a vendor.
This event is juried. We, along with our trusted jury, will review each application and take a variety of items into consideration when choosing our vendors. We are looking for quality handmade items, a cohesive brand, great photographs of your items so we can see what you make, innovative items, etc.
Thank you for being so wildly creative!
