Event Details
– ARTS FEST DETAILS – Arts Fest is an outdoor event held rain or shine.

– BLOCK PARTY DETAILS – THE BLOCK may be cancelled or postponed due to weather.

– BEVERLY’S NEW YEAR DETAILS – Vendors are located on Cabot Street. We need vendors that can work in cold and freezing weather. Hot drinks are a must.

– ATTENTION RESTAURANTS LOCATED ON CABOT STREET – If you’re a restaurant located in the event area, you MAY be able to set up in front of your storefront, depending on construction, your location and what you are serving. If you do NOT purchase the space in front of your storefront during these events, it is likely that another vendor will be set up directly in front of your door. You may use the 10×10 space to set up a canopy and sell food, or you may leave that space open and put balloons and/or a sign inviting people to come into your restaurant to eat during the event. We will do our best to let you have the space in front of your business if possible.

– All vendors are required to use a truck/trailer and/or a canopy at all events. Setting up just a table to serve food is not allowed. Vendors must comply with any covid or other public health requirements.

We get so many compliments on the food served at our events, and it is all thanks to you. Please email if you have any questions (but the very best thing you can do is to complete the application). Only applications that are submitted online will be reviewed. Please contact Heather at hwolsey@beverlymainstreets.org with all questions.
