Our mouths are watering and our pockets are jingling! Every year we have more vendors apply than we are able to accommodate, so please make sure to tell us everything about what you can bring to Festival One to help us make the very best choices. APPLICATIONS FOR 2025 HAVE CLOSED.

Winners of the 2021 Access Alliance People's Choice Accessible Business Awards, the Soul Lounge has been breaking down barriers to make Festival One more accessible, year on year. For 2025, the team would love to hear from you if festival environments aren't within reach for you. We'd love to get to know you, have a chat, and see where we can help to make your attendance at Festival a reality. Contact us here: soullounge@festival.one.
