The Reston Festival provides many services including, but not limited to Canopies, Tables, Chairs and Electricity. These items are not available for all vendors and vary in cost according to your vendor type. You will find more information about your choices in the application.
Despite our increased costs and a reduction in available space at Reston Town Center, we have elected to keep booth space fees at their 2009 levels. We hope to bridge the revenue shortfall through increased fundraising and by attracting more sponsors (please send them our way!). All vendors are encouraged to provide an activity, game or contest that will encourage attendees to spend time at each booth. It is our hope that every aspect of the Reston Festival will provide something of interest for the entire family.
