Central Missouri Renaissance Festival

Artisan, Merchant & Vendor Application

Join our village marketplace

Greetings,

 

The Central Missouri Renaissance Festival will be celebrating its 20th season in 2025. We will once again do 2 weekends in the spring. On the last weekend of April, the 26th & 27th and the weekend of May 3rd and 4th. We will also close our season with one weekend in October, the 18th & 19th.
 

Over the past 11 years the festival witnessed a large period of construction with new roofs on stages, a new kitchen area, construction of vendor booths. Six years ago, we added a new ticket booth, pass gate, a new children’s realm was started and a very nice jump on a Fae area. This past year we created a new food court area, constructed a CMRF merchandise building, and poured a concrete low water crossing bridge.  We invite our vendors to participate in this effort by constructing their own permanent booth spaces. If you are interested, please contact us for more information.

Thank you,

Craft Guild

The Central Missouri Renaissance Festival is actively looking for vendors willing to demonstrate and showcase the construction of their wares for our patrons. If this is something you might like to do, we might have room for you.

 

What is your craft? Are you a painter, sculptor, potter, wood worker, metal worker, leatherworker, or tailor? Let us know what type of craft you plan to display and demo. What your demo will be and if you need any extra room or anything special to put the demo on.

 

Requirements:

 

Handmade items (not assembled)

 

5 demo’s a day ( at least 30 min per demo; could be a continuation of one single item that you are working on through the day. If so, I would suggest to have others at stages so you can show new patrons what it has looked like while you are progressing;  assembly and cinching of items is not a demo)

 

Be able to explain what you are doing and preferably what they did back in the medieval times and the differences now.   If you are using more modern tools,  possibly show the difference if you have them to share.

 

Encourage hands on (if possible) and question… patron interaction is what we are looking for.

 

You must dress the part the best you can. There are plenty of resources out there to help find affordable costuming.  If needed, we will be happy to share links with you and ideas to help you achieve this.
