A heritage festival runs like a small fair: gates, food stations, vendor booths and a main stage with performances through the evening.
What to plan for
- Plan about 50 food stations and spread them out to avoid crowding.
- Map out booths, stage, restrooms, first aid and exits on the floor plan before you book vendors.
- Open one check-in lane for about every 250 guests, and post table maps at every entrance. Find my seat lets guests look up their table on their phone.
- Plan parking, shuttles, security and first aid with the venue early. Big crowds arrive in waves.
