VENDOR INFORMATIONMemphis Crafts & Drafts Festival is a juried crafts exhibition and sale of area artists, makers, and crafters. Our goal is to host an inclusive shopping event, where local vendors can successfully connect with local buyers - in a fun and engaging market setting that brings the Shop Local mission to life. In 2021 we successfully hosted our Summer Market in July and our Holiday Market in November, both at Crosstown Concourse in Memphis.
Applications for our 2nd annual Summer Market - hosted Saturday 6/25/22 - have closed, however we are accepting waitlist applicants at this time. Applications are OPEN for our 6th annual Holiday Market - hosted 11/12/22 and 11/13/22 - and will close on July 29, 2022. We encourage ALL POTENTIAL APPLICANTS to thoroughly review our Vendor FAQ's prior to starting an application; our FAQ's may be found here. |

"This was our best festival in terms of revenue per hour EVER. It was so wonderful. The attendance was outstanding!"
"It’s just such a great atmosphere and well curated event. I also think there’s no bad booth placement which is great. I also liked the one day option as I travel for this event and it’s really hard for me to do two days, so thank you so much for that!"
"Always a good event. Best in Memphis. We had record breaking sales at both your events. Sales are always good on first day, but the second day was our highest ever for a two day event."
"Love the atmosphere and location. It's well organized and publicized."
"This was our most profitable local one day show yet, and we were blown away by how many people were there and ready to shop."
"Love the venue and the time of year right around the holidays!"
"Just a beautiful event at Crosstown! Gets better and better each year. Well organized!!"
"The good vibes of it being an upscale, handcrafted, cool event to attend. Easy access, central without being all the way downtown."
"The crowd was great. The other vendors were excellent to work with. The all over vibe was just spectacular. It’s my most successful event to date!"
