All VENDOR SPACES and food spaces ARE NOW FULL FOR THE 2026 FESTIVAL!
For the 2026 festival, due to construction limitations at the new playground at Swan Lake Iris Gardens, vendors will have a different layout. If you have participated in the past, your regular booth space may not be available. While we will accept booth space requests, we cannot guarantee your location.
The Iris Festival Commission is committed to creating an inclusive environment where all individuals, including vendors, contractors, and participants, are treated with respect and are afforded equal opportunity without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, or veteran status. We will base all engagement decisions solely on merit and qualifications, ensuring fair and equitable treatment throughout our interactions.
STEP 2.
Mail Application and all required info (Yes, it is required to be mailed, so we have a USPS postmark date). NO HAND DELIVERIES OR DIGITAL COPIES WILL BE ACCEPTED.
If your application is accepted, the fee is non-returnable and you will receive a confirmation packet in the mail with all the details required for check-in, setup and booth location.
If your application is not accepted, your fee will be returned.
DO NOT wait to get this the day of your check-in. The City's Business License office will not be open during the festival's check-in process times. Call 803-774-1601 to talk to a Business License professional at the City.
The City's Business License office is inside the Liberty Center, located at 12 W. Liberty Street.
STEP 5.
Bring all of the documents mentioned in the steps above with you, and anything mailed to you when you check in for setup at the festival.
Please, keep them handy, so you can reach them from your driver's seat, as you will need them to get into the gate before unloading.
