How to Use This Template
This template helps you submit professional applications to festival organisers. It includes your business overview with social media links and website, complete menu with pricing and allergen information, photographs of your setup at previous events, all compliance documentation (food hygiene rating, gas certificate, public liability insurance, PAT certificates, risk assessments), equipment specifications and power requirements, team size and experience, references from previous festival organisers, and your unique selling point.
Treat every festival application like a job interview. Organisers receive hundreds of applications and reject most of them. Your application needs to show that you're professional, compliant, and will add something the festival doesn't already have. If they've already accepted three pizza vendors, your pizza application is dead on arrival — offer something different or demonstrate why yours is better.
Start applying 3-6 months before the festival season. The biggest and best-paying festivals fill their food trader slots early. Build a portfolio of professional photographs from previous events, collect references from organisers you've worked with, and keep your compliance documents current and ready to attach. A strong festival application can lead to regular annual bookings worth thousands.
