Vendor Registration Is Open — 10th Annual Colorado Dashiki Festival, August 29, 2026
Most vendor opportunities ask you to show up and hope.
The Dashiki Festival is different. You are not hoping for foot traffic. You are walking into a crowd that already wants what you are selling.
Why this crowd is different
Over 6,000 people came to the Colorado Dashiki Festival last year. They did not wander in by accident. They came specifically to celebrate African culture, support African and African-inspired businesses, and spend money on things that mean something to them.
That is the difference between a regular market and this one. At most events, you are competing for attention. At the Dashiki Festival, the attention is already pointed at you before you even open your booth.
What kind of vendors thrive here
If you sell fashion wear, your pieces are walking into a crowd that just watched a runway show celebrating exactly the kind of design you make.
If you sell food, you are feeding a crowd of thousands who showed up hungry for flavors that remind them of home.
If you make art, jewelry, or crafts, you are standing in front of people who understand the cultural weight of what you have made and are ready to pay for it.
Every type of vendor who has shown up to this festival has walked away with something: new customers, repeat buyers, revenue, and in some cases, business relationships that outlasted the festival itself.
This year is the 10th Annual
Ten years of building this audience. Ten years of growing the crowd. Ten years of turning August into the date thousands of people block off in advance.
This year's edition is built to be the biggest one yet. This means more people are walking past your booth than ever before.
Spots are limited
Vendor space at the festival is not unlimited. Every year, spots fill up, and every year, some vendors wait too long and miss their chance.
The booths that get the best foot traffic go first.
If you have a product worth selling, this is the audience worth selling it to.
