Carrot Fest returns to Bradford West Gwillimbury on August 15-16, 2025.
Approved by Council on December 17, 2025, please be advised of a change in the registration process for businesses and vendors seeking to participate in Bradford’s annual Carrot Fest event.
The new registration process includes a 2-week period for each business type to apply and receive priority. The registration dates are:
Store Front Businesses: January 20 – February 3, 2025
Local Businesses/Vendors: February 4 – February 18, 2025
Non-local Businesses/Vendors: February 19 – March 5, 2025
Store front businesses will have the first opportunity to submit their application, followed by Local Businesses/vendors and finally Non-local Businesses/vendors; providing each business type 2 weeks to apply. The vendor application portal will remain open until June 1, 2025, but once all three registration dates have passed, applications will move to being accepted in chronological order based on the date of submission, rather than Business Type. The dates specified above are to ensure each business type has an equal opportunity to apply and receive priority. In addition to ensuring the Town keeps the event diverse, the Events & Marketing Team will limit the number of the same business types to 3-4.
If you are interested in attending Carrot Fest this year, please be sure to keep track of your registration period.
