Vendor Applications

Participation in the festival is a great opportunity for your organization to provide valuable resources to individuals of all ages with disabilities, family members, friends, and care partners. Vendors will be provided with a 10×10 ft space that includes one 6 ft table and will be encouraged to connect with attendees through interactive games, giveaways, flyers, and more!

Vendor fees will be $50 for non-profits and $100 for for-profits. Sportable will host adaptive sports demos, and vendors will also be invited to demo. Participating vendors will be invoiced for their vendor fee. For-profit vendors need to specifically serve individuals with disabilities.

Complete your application by January 1! We will notify you with a confirmation of your participation on a rolling basis. If we reach vendor capacity prior to the application deadline, we will have a waitlist for participation.
