Market and Food Vendors
Market and Food Vendors are invited to join us at the 2026 San Jacinto Fall Fandango on Saturday, October 24, from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. This outdoor event, set against the backdrop of the historic San Jacinto Monument in La Porte, Texas, draws between 500 and 1,000 attendees throughout the day. It offers a picturesque setting for a day filled with living history activities, family-friendly saloon games, historical cooking demonstrations, talented artisans, and engaging reenactments.
Seeking vendors who embody Texas heritage and craftsmanship—farmers, artisans, bakers, specialty food makers, traditional goods, local businesses, and food vendors.
Limited space is available for nonprofits and for vendors offering modern retail, direct sales, or mass-produced products.
Preference is given to vendors whose work aligns with the event’s historical theme, emphasizes traditional skills, or offers a strong connection to local culture and community.
