Theme Weeks
Each week of Marketfest we offer different
Theme Weeks with special displays and vendors
on 4th Street.
In addition to our regular Marketfest vendors, each week on 4th Street we have a different theme that showcases our fantastic businesses, organizations, community groups, and city resources. To participate as a Theme Week vendor, apply for a free one-night 12’x12′ booth on 4th Street by May 1, 2020.
