We are happy you have chosen to participate in the 5th Annual NorCal Celtic Festival
Submittal of a completed application does not guarantee vendor acceptance into the NorCal Celtic Festival. Limited spaces available!
Vendor preference will be given on the basis of several factors, past performance at events, level of vendor investment, and date of paperwork received. The application deadline is February 17th. Late applications may be accepted at double the fee, space permitting.
Things you will need to have:
Seller's Permit and/or Health Permit - depending on the type of vendor-supplied 15 business days before the event
Completed Temporary Food Facility Operators Packet.
Liability Insurance (see details below)
All vendors selling or displaying must complete the application in full - upload a copy of your Seller's Permit and/or health permit and insurance documents (see below). If you do not have the documents, they may be emailed at a later date, but must be received 15 business days before the event by March 26th no exceptions.
Food vendors must complete and submit all pages of the Temporary Food Facility Operators Packet. Click HERE for a copy. This does not apply to food trucks. All vendors must provide proof of vendor's insurance prior to the event date.
A certificate of liability naming Visit Woodland, Woodland Hoteliers Group, Yolo County Fairgrounds and NorCal Celtic Festival (405 Main St. Woodland, CA 95695), as additionally insured.
Food vendors are classified as low-risk or high-risk by the Yolo County Health Department. Low risk includes pre-packaged foods, hot dogs, corn dogs, nachos, popcorn, cotton candy, and non-dairy coffee. High risk includes any food that is cooked, barbecued, or deep-fried meat or seafood, rice, pizza, sushi, tacos, and all dairy drinks. All food vendors are responsible for additional Health Department inspection fees, which are NOT included in the booth fee. No on-site food sampling is allowed without prior authorization and approval. You must pay the Health Department fees. If you carry an MEV, please provide a copy of your permit with your application.
Vendor space is open to food vendors selling either pre-packaged foods or cooked foods and refreshments. NO REFUNDS for any reason. This is a rain or shine event. In the event of rain, booth spaces may be re-assigned at check-in starting at 6:00 AM on April 10, 2027. In this case, the vendors present will be placed together in a central area to avoid gaps from no-shows.
- If you are interested in setting up the day before Friday April 9th please contact us at [email protected] by March 16th. We encourage you to set up on Friday!
Please ensure that you bring all necessary equipment for various weather conditions (rain, sun, wind), such as tents, tables, chairs, and weights for securing the tent, as required for the event.
Why do I need Weights?
If your tent is not properly weighted, a sudden burst of wind can send it airborne—putting your tent, your investment, and the safety of others at serious risk. A flying tent is extremely dangerous and can cause severe injury to children, pets, fellow vendors, and attendees.
Choosing not to follow required tent-weight guidelines is choosing to put others in harm’s way. For everyone’s safety, all tents must meet established weight requirements at all time
We require a minimum of 40-50 pounds of weight per leg (and at least 160 pounds of weights in total).

**We reserve the right to decline your vendor application. If this happens, your application fee will be refunded. If multiple applications are submitted for the same item the vendor who sends payment with a completed application will get approved first if everything is filled out correctly. NO EXCEPTIONS.
