Important Dates

The Wellington County Multicultural Festival focuses on cultural performances and cuisines. This year, we are open to welcoming product sellers to our new ethnocultural marketplace. Vendors selling ethnocultural items like accessories, shoes, clothing, souvenirs, décor and art are encouraged to apply. Selected vendors will need to pay a nominal fee to the Township of Centre Wellington and submit the required documents.

The Multicultural Festival takes place on the grounds of the Wellington County Museum and Archives, with activities and vendors located both indoors and outdoors. Due to a limited number of indoor spaces available, indoor spaces will be assigned by the event organizer. A site map indicating where your booth will be located will be shared with you by June 23, 2025.

Each vendor with be provided with two 6-foot tables, two chairs and an approximate 10x10ft space. Vendors are welcome to bring additional tables and chairs to set up their space as needed. 

If you require access to electricity, please let us know in your application so we can ensure that your display is placed in proximity to an electrical outlet. You are required to bring your own extension cord (minimum 25 to 50 ft) to access the electricity.  

Performers will be provided access to a dressing room.

You are required to bring your own 10x10 tent for your outdoor vendor space. Please ensure you have weights, sandbags, or similar, to anchor your tent in place. Most vendor spaces are located on a concrete driveway, so tents cannot be staked into the ground.  If you do not have a tent, please us know at the time of application.
