the sidmouth folk festival is a great place to trade.
Many thousands of people visit the event each year. We have a limited number of festival caterers across 4 sites (The Ham, Bulverton, Blackmore & Campsite), and pride ourselves on providing a range of delicious, good-value food.
Any other street food / pop-up traders are not affiliated with the Festival.
We love celebrating the character and creativity of East Devon and are especially keen to welcome traders from the local area. Showcasing local talent, produce, and craftsmanship is a big part of what makes the festival feel special and helps create a strong sense of community for both visitors and traders alike. We also care deeply about looking after our environment and keeping the festival as sustainable as possible. We warmly encourage traders who share these values to join us, particularly those who make thoughtful choices around reducing waste, using sustainable packaging and sourcing their products responsibly.
