The Bandon Oregon Chamber of Commerce is pleased to host the Bandon Cranberry Festival the second weekend in September.

Our annual harvest festival is the longest-running festival on the Oregon Coast, started in 1947 and produced by the Bandon Chamber since 1997. The festival draws the largest attendance of any Bandon community event, with approximately 12,000 residents and visitors in town through the weekend. Vendors are encouraged to apply and reserve lodging early.

Cranberry Festival activities and vendor market area are centered in Bandon’s Historic Old Town, on the Coquille River waterfront.

APPLICATIONS: Application for booth space is reserved for food, beverage, art and hand-crafted items. In order to maintain the quality of our festival, all booth entries are juried and the number of entries limited. Non-returnable photographs of your product must be submitted for consideration of booth space. CANCELLATION POLICY: Refund of booth space rental will be granted if the Bandon Cranberry Festival is notified in writing 30 days prior to the date of the event.

Thank you for considering participation in the Bandon Cranberry Festival. We

look forward to seeing you in September.

BY THE NUMBERS

From Michael and Mary Wrightson of Chico, CA:

. . . What a charming town . . . to open up and welcome all residents and visitors to celebrate together in a safe and fun environment . . . . The entire weekend was great!

We stumbled on the end of the festival when we passed through Bandon 2 years ago. At the time, we promised ourselves we’d come back the next year and experience the entire weekend, which we did (and again this year), and plan to continue to do so every September until we’re able to eventually move to Bandon . . . .

Thank you and the entire chamber for all the work and planning that goes into putting together such a tremendous event. We just came home tonight and are already making plans for next year.

Thank you again!
