Green Festivals provides 24-hour security; however, you are responsible for your belongings. We
recommend taking precautions like covering your booth with a sheet when you leave each evening and
hiding valuables.
How much does the show cost for attendees
A one-day pass is $15.00 for adults and a weekend pass is $25. Green Festivals also provides many
ways for free admissions, like volunteering with one of our non-profit allies, or making a donation.
Children under 12 are admitted free.
I am interested in exhibiting for other Green Festival cities, what should I do
Call or email your sales representative. You may call your sales rep at (828) 333-9403. If you can’t
remember your sales rep’s name or extension dial extension 300 and we will route you to the right
person to help.
If I am an exhibitor this year, will you hold my same space for next year
We change the floor-plan each year to keep the event interesting. No two Green Festivals are
identical. We recommend that you work closely with your Green Festival sales representative to get
the latest updates on new floor-plans and to talk through the options for the most valuable booth
locations for your green business.
Can I sell product at the show Can I sample product
Absolutely! Let your sales representative know your intent and which products you would like to sell or
sample. Sampling food or beverage requires strict compliance paperwork
