Hundreds of South Jersey and the Greater Philadelphia LGBTQA communities and allies to come together on this day to celebrate its pride! You are invited to be a vendor and promote your organization! Download the vending information and applications which are self-explanatory.
PLEASE READ THE VENDOR INSTRUCTIONS AND REGULATIONS IN THEIR ENTIRETY.
To be fair and honest, we only have one vendor application per direct sales opportunity. We encourage you to act quickly in order to reserve your space. We do not "hold" vendor spaces. We do not have control of when electronic submissions and payments are submitted for vendor reservations. Payment is required to confirm your vendor space. Vendor application submission without payment does not confirm your vendor space.
FOOD vendors (only) using gas propane are required to get a permit from the Camden County Fire Marshal’s Office. See vendor application for further instructions.

If you submit a credit card payment, please include your vendor application's contact and organization names. Also, we are not responsible for credit card online processing fees. Failure to pay processing fees may result in your application being denied or billed directly on the day of the event.
