Vending At NLQP
What would an event at Nelson Ledges be without a walk down Shakedown Street?
For many guests, the vendor village is part of the tradition. It’s where art is discovered, handmade pieces find new homes, and longtime favorites reconnect year after year. Nelson Ledges Quarry Park proudly hosts a diverse mix of food, merchandise, and specialty vendors — including several who have been with us for over a decade and are truly part of the NLQP family.
We curate Shakedown Street intentionally to maintain quality, variety, and flow. Each vendor plays a role in creating the experience.

Food & Merchandise Vending
At Nelson Ledges Quarry Park, we take pride in curating a diverse and high-quality vendor village that enhances the guest experience. We welcome new vendors who bring originality, professionalism, and strong presentation. To protect vendor success and maintain product diversity, we limit overlapping specialties. Only one vendor per primary specialty category is permitted unless otherwise determined by management.
All vendors must be reviewed and approved prior to acceptance. Submission of an application does not guarantee placement.
