Apple Fest 2026! Y’all showed out this year and we felt all the love and support ❤️🙌
This year, we bought line stanchions to try and help manage the crowd. We were blown away when people would line up right before we opened for the day. When we sold out, we would put a sign indicating a restock in 20mins-1 hour, and still people would begin queuing up again! 😱 It’s amazing to see how far we’ve come from our first years at Apple fest to now—look at that dinky tent in the last slide haha
We see a lot of discourse online regarding the massive crowds and that’s why we took it upon ourselves to buy stanchions to help manage the queue this year. A big shout out to my beautiful fiancé who suggested that idea.👸🏽 Hopefully, next year’s Apple Fest can be more easily navigated with more structured queuing like our booth.
From a vendor’s perspective, Apple fest is one of the most successful events of the year for us. You can really see the heart and soul that is poured into this event by the LSRCC staff. I think it’s a testament to their hard work that Apple Fest is as big as it is. Of course improvements can always be made and so our suggestion is more structured queuing! A big thank you to all of you who come out to these events— you are what makes this worth it! 🍎
