Plans are underway in Chittenango, NY for our 41th annual Oz-Stravaganza!. For 2018, the festival will run from Friday, June 1st thru Sunday, 3rd. If you have attended in past years, thank you for your support. If this will be your first year, welcome, and we look forward to your presence. We wish you all a fun and profitable weekend.
If you wish to customize your merchandise, this year’s theme is Broadway Comes to Oz. In addition, it is the 100th Anniversary of L. Frank Baum’s book “The Tin Woodman of Oz.”
Below is a review of vendor fees, additional pertinent information, and this year’s Oz-Stravaganza application. If you have any questions, contact us using the information provided.

ATTENTION NEW VENDORS: Over the last several years, we have seen a rash of vendors leaving early and not participating on Sunday. In 2017, eight vendor spots were found vacant on Sunday morning. This practice is unfair to our guests and unacceptable. To curb this behaviour, new vendors will now be required to pay a participation deposit. This deposit will be returned if you stay until the end of the festival. The deposit will be equal to 50% of your participation fee (i.e. if you pay a $200 vendor participation fee, you will be required to submit a separate $100 deposit). Returning vendors will not be required to pay the participation deposit.
NOTE: For new vendors, a separate participation deposit is required. It is suggested that this deposit be a check so that it can be returned to you at the festival.
