Vendor Scam - Be Aware!

We have been made aware of individuals and third parties falsely claiming to represent the Richmond Folk Festival and soliciting food vendors to apply or pay fees. We are NOT currently accepting vendor applications and do not authorize third parties to recruit or collect application fees on our behalf.

If you receive an email, phone call, social media message, or other communication claiming that vendor applications are still open, please do not respond or submit payment.
If you have questions about the legitimacy of a communication, please contact us directly at vendor@venturerichmond.com before taking any action.
