2019 Vendor Application Details
Our 2019 TGTRRR event is now even bigger than before!
We have entertainment scheduled for both Friday and Saturday (race day).
Vendors may attend on Friday only, Saturday only or on Friday and Saturday.
Rates for each option are shown below.
We’re expecting a fantastic turnout for The Great Trent River Raft Race in 2019 and we’ll have a very limited number of Vendor spaces available, so get your applications in fast!
If you would like to be a vendor at the event then you must submit a completed application and signed agreement and be selected through a committee approval process.
Prime space is limited, so we advise that applications are submitted as early as possible.
The Great Trent River Raft Race committee will limit duplication amongst Vendors whenever possible to create an interesting variety of choices for our visitors and a more profitable event for everyone.
