Vendor Deadlines & Information

Please review the Information, Rules and Procedures PDF carefully before submitting your application.

Important Note: ALL vendors, regardless of type, MUST report total sales dollars and hotel stay information to Medieval Fair Department post Fair every year.  FAILURE to do so will result in ineligibility to participate in the future.

Food Vendors - Review the Quick reference tool for health department requirements.  This is a draft and not an official document which is subject to change but it is a good starting point. The 2026 price for a three day permit from CCHD was $100.  Contact Cleveland County Health Department at clevelandenvironmental@health.ok.gov or call 405-321-4048 with any specific questions.  You must also have your State of Oklahoma Fire Marshal and State of Oklahoma LP Gas certificates/stickers. The City of Norman Fire Marshal will do onsite inspections. 

There is a nonrefundable $15 Application Fee due with ALL vendor applications. Remaining fees will not be collected until AFTER you have been accepted. ALL artisans, not just the new ones, must submit a complete list of products or services. IF the interactive website feature gets fixed, your product descriptions will be visible to patrons - please type carefully! INCLUDE PICTURES! Neither our patrons nor our jury have all 200 vendors memorized by name.  Only one application per booth space allowed. 

Applications must be submitted through the online system at mis.medievalfair.org.
