Send EmailRegistration: Memorial Weekend Vendor...Description
Our Memorial Weekend Vendor Market is open for exhibitors! We'd love for you to help us celebrate. Our visitors are seeking handmade crafts, one of a kind resale items and local foods. I bet you have something to offer them! Additional events that will entice buyers include our annual Car Show, live music, and local businesses will have sidewalk sales and specials! This show has continuously brought in approximately 4,600 guests. We average about 80 vendors with a mix of handmade, resale and our member businesses.
Newaygo is a small community that thrives with tourism thanks to our natural resources like the Muskegon River running right through the downtown district as well as numerous trails.
We'd love for you to stay the weekend with us! (There is no overnight camping in Brooks Park) Click here for a list of of our Members that offer lodging!
We will have numerous food truck options in the park, but you can find a full list of Member dining options that are sure to satisfy here!
