“The area south of Interstate 630 in downtown Little Rock is revitalizing by focusing on what refreshes everyone’s spirit – simple, pure and good food, nature, art and community,” said Anita Davis, founder of the Arkansas Cornbread Festival and the Bernice Garden and community advocate for South Main Street in downtown Little Rock. “The Arkansas Cornbread Festival is an opportunity for people throughout this state to see what their neighbors in the southern part of downtown Little Rock find so appealing about our area.”
For-profit vendors (any company, organization or individual selling goods and/or services for their own benefit) can acquire a 10′ x 10′ booth for $50. Each for-profit vendor must provide all set up, and electricity is available for an additional fee.
Attendees at the Arkansas Cornbread Festival stroll through vendor booths.
Nonprofit vendors (any organization with a valid 501 (c) (3) designation) can acquire at no cost a 10′ x 10′ booth. Each nonprofit vendor is asked to provide to the Arkansas Cornbread Festival two volunteers to assist us in the set up, breakdown and administration of the festival. In addition, the nonprofit is required to provide all of the booth’s set up. Electricity is available for an additional fee.

All vendor booths are available on a first-come, first-served basis so please complete the appropriate form today and return to us with your associated fees. We look forward to meeting you and enjoying a successful festival together.
