Tailgate Space & Vendors
Tailgate Spaces
Our tradition is to have a free hamfest. All Tailgate spaces are on a first come, first serve basis. We expect to fill up completely this year so please arrive early if you want to tailgate. The hamfest and tailgate area opens promptly at 8AM on Saturday. Don't forget to buy tickets for the prizes we are giving away. We usually have over $1500 in prizes on offer.
Commercial Spaces
We have always had a free hamfest (since around 1975) so we cannot tell potential vendors what our exact attendance is (beyond a good guess). For 2009 we guestimate we had about 700 hams and people interested technology in attendance based on the car park and prize ticket sales. We have commercial space available at a very reasonable to cost to commercial vendors- only $25.00. You may Reserve a Commercial Space with table and chair (PDF). We pass the table cost along from the rental company. If you need more tables, you must order them prior to arrival as we will only have prepaid tables delivered on site. You are welcome to bring your own tables, they should each be no more than 8 feet long. Please contact us if you would like to be a vendor at the Stuart hamfest or have any questions.
