Two elements combine for new PoultryFest feature

Taking advantage of its new festival location at the West Niagara Agricultural Centre, PoultryFest organizers are introducing The Shopping Centre.

The shows, formerly known as “The Giant Craft Show” and the “Marketplace” have been combined to form the “PoultryFest Shopping Centre”.

“The new location allows us, during the June 25 festival, to house all of our vendors indoors in the Richardson Building while still allowing the choice for outdoor display space,” said Shopping Centre co-ordinator, Angela Veldman.

In total, there will be nearly 100 spots available, some with hydro.

Also included in the Richardson Building will be a wine garden and live music throughout the day.

Veldman added that applications for spaces are already coming in as crafters and other vendors are excited with the prospect of being indoors.

“I’m encouraging potential vendors to get their application in as soon as possible,” Veldman said.

“The new location also allows for a Friday evening setup with full security being supplied by PoultryFest.”

Early Saturday morning will also still be a setup option time for vendor guests.

Spots will be assigned on a first come, first serve basis.
