The Rocky Point–Sound Beach Chamber of Commerce proudly presents the Downtown Rocky Point Fall Festival & Street Fair, a lively community celebration where local creativity meets small-town spirit. This walkable, family-friendly event welcomes artisans, makers, small businesses, nonprofits, and interactive vendors to the heart of Sound Beach for a day filled with music, hands-on activities, and neighborhood connection. From unique handcrafted goods to kid-friendly attractions and local flavors, this event is designed to showcase the best of our community and invite guests to shop small, play local, and welcome fall together 🍂☀️.

IF YOU ARE A PROMOTIONAL OR SERVICE-BASED VENDOR:

Please submit interest to rpsbchamber@gmail.com prior to applying to ensure your category receives pre-approval.

Vendor Space & Application Process

• Applications are first-come, first-served and reviewed on a rolling basis

• Expect a review time of up to 14 business days after submission

• A $30 non-refundable administrative application fee is included with all vendor applications. This fee covers the time and processing required to review applications and to issue refunds only if a vendor is not accepted due to category limits or event curation factors.

If you are not accepted, your table fee will be refunded minus the $30 administrative application fee.

If you would like to guarantee acceptance before submitting payment, you may request 24-hour pre-approval via email. Once pre-approved, you may apply without concern for category limitations, and no refund or administrative deduction would apply.

TO RECAP: The $30 is not an additional cost on top of the table fee. It is simply the portion applied toward administrative and processing time if we must issue a refund because a vendor was not accepted. Pre-approval prevents this entirely.

• Prepackaged food vendors (with proper permit)
• Food trucks/tent set-ups (with DOH temp/annual permit)

Vendors are encouraged to bring personality and engagement through attractive booth displays, demonstrations, interactive elements, or spring-themed offerings that enhance the guest experience.

Food & Sampling Requirements:

Vendors offering samples must have items sealed as “to-go” or hold appropriate DOH permits. All vendors must supply required permits and licensing after application approval (e.g., 20C, Home Processor, DOH, etc).

Event Promotion & Vendor Benefits

Your vendor fee directly supports event production and marketing, which includes:

✔ Regional promotion (web, social media, local outreach)
✔ Event staffing & security
✔ Municipal permitting & coordination
✔ On-site logistics & vendor support
✔ Printed event materials & signage

🚨 All vendor fees are non-refundable. The event will take place rain or shine. 

FEES ARE NON-REFUNDABLE. The event is scheduled to take place rain or shine. In the case of severe inclement weather that poses a safety risk to vendors, staff, or attendees, a designated Severe Weather Date will be implemented.

Vendors assume all risk associated with weather-related cancellations, and all fees will be retained to cover event planning, permitting, staffing, marketing, and operational costs already incurred.
