We want you to be happy with your space during this festive weekend. If you have a preference as to placement in the park, whether it is shade, direct sunlight, away from the music, near the stage, perimeter, center, near the food, near a handicapped bathroom, etc, let us know. We sincerely try and take every request into consideration but please understand that we are working with limited resources and no climate control.
The Whitefish Parks Department has completed the renovation of Depot Park. The park is now ready for visitors to relax and enjoy. A new map that meets social distancing guidelines will be available Booth/Location requests will be considered in the order they are received, with select artists (artists who have a long history with the Whitefish Arts Festival) spaces to be determined first.
TENTS AND DISPLAYS
NO spikes are allowed for the majority of the park. Vendors will pay 100% percent of damages assessed by the City of Whitefish. Use heavy weights or water weights to secure your tent. Be prepared for sunshine, rain, and possible gusty winds.
If you with to use spikes you must request the northeast corner of the park and specify use of spikes..
SECURITY
Professional overnight security will be provided Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights. The Whitefish Arts Festival and/or Whitefish Christian Academy are not responsible for any theft, loss, or damage to artwork or booths at the show.
PARKING:
Remember, we must save room for our customers!
Artists agree not to park within the restricted parking areas of the festival without written approval from festival organizers. Violators will not be invited back to the Whitefish Arts Festival.
RESORT TAX:
The resort tax is 3% and applies to many art and food sales. Visit the City of Whitefish Resort Tax for more details.
CANCELLATION POLICY:
Cancellations are difficult and we are sure that no one intentionally plans to cancel after entering into an agreement for any art festival. However, on our end, the closer we get to the event date, the more time and planning we have invested, and the more difficult it becomes for us to fill your booth space with quality artists or food vendors. In many cases the individuals who could have filled your booth space are no longer available with such late notice. For that reason, we request that you respect the following dates with regards to cancellation:
ARTISAN FOOD:
The Artisan Food category applies to exhibitors who offer specialty food offerings like bakery items, jams, and artisan specialties. No in-booth preparation allowed other than samples. Current MT Food License required with booth and product photos.
LODGING For hotel, campsite, or RV locations please contact the Whitefish Chamber of
Commerce at www.whitefishchamber.org or call 406-862-3501 and ask that a visitors packet be mailed to you.
Make reservations early!
No camping on city streets or empty parking lots. You will be towed!
