Vendor Information

The City of Albany Office of Special Events invites businesses to participate in the numerous opportunities that exist for vendors during special events produced by the City. All events are presented free to the public.

Vendor opportunities exist in multiple Albany locations, including Washington Park and the Albany Riverfront/Corning Preserve.

Please note: Prospective vendors must complete an application and return it with payment to the Special Events Office in order to be considered for participation. Applications are available online approximately two-to-three months prior to an event. Vendor spaces are granted on a first come/first served basis (with the exception of Tulip Festival by which vendors are selected by the Tulip Festival Committee) and are evaluated by an independent committee for completeness. All vendors must meet the criteria listed in each application in order to be considered for the event. Due to the high volume of applications and limited space at each event, spaces are occasionally sold out prior to the application deadline. Potential vendors are encouraged to contact the Special Events Office for a current status on space availability. Walk-in vendors are NOT permitted at any time.

Please see the list of current vendor event applications HERE. For more information, call the Special Events Office at (518) 434-2032 or E-Mail: kosac@ci.albany.ny.us
