NLFB seeks vendors, exhibitors for ’14

Vicki Gilhula — Thu, 13 Mar 2014 16:22:05 +0000

Northern Lights Festival Boréal (NLFB) is currently accepting
vendor/crafter/artisan applications for the festival. The festival will
take place July 4th, 5th and 6th at Bell Park, Sudbury. The festival
traditionally hosts numerous food vendors, artisans, crafters, retailers, as
well as non-profit and environmental exhibitors. The festival usually attracts
anywhere between 10,000 and 15,000 patrons from Northern Ontario and
beyond, and is host to 40+ musical acts. Vendor application forms and
information regarding fees, logistics and more can be found online
at: www.nlfbsudbury.com/vendors.

Vendors will be selected through a formal application process and can
expect to hear back by May 30, 2014 at the absolute latest. Originality is
certainly an asset, as NLFB organizers seek to preserve the eclectic and
diverse atmosphere the festival has become known for.

“We had a great diversity of vendors and non-profit displays last year, and
we seek only to expand on this for 2014,” says Max Merrifield, Executive
Director of the festival.

NLFB is Canada’s longest continuous running music festival and
celebrated its 40th anniversary in 2011. Over the years NLFB has grown from
a one day event called the ‘Northern Lights Folk Festival’ into a seasoned
presenter of Canadian roots and modern music. The modern NLFB
experience can be described as, ‘a roots music festival that loves modern
music,’ or ‘a modern music festival that’s in love with its roots.’
