Phoestivus is happening, virtually.

We are following the advice of the CDC and scientists and have opted not to create a super spreader event in the heart of downtown Phoenix.

In light of all that, we are highlighting all our vendors on line for the entire month of December, with the help of Local First’s Shop Local platform, coming soon.

We are taking applications at the Phoestivus website for vendors. You need to be locally-owned, you need to create your own goods for sale and you need to fill out the application. We prefer if you are also a member of Local First, as they will ask you to be one if you want to sell through their website.

Unlike in past years when the Phoestivus Market has been a fundraiser for the Downtown Phoenix Farmer’s Market, this year we are devoting all of our energy to just help those amazing local vendors to survive and thrive.

We’ve always found that adverse circumstances often lead to new and creative ideas. We expect many to come out of this experience.

So, please follow Phoestivus on Instagram, where you will soon see announcements for the many amazing vendors that we have lined up for you.

In the end, we know that Phoestivus is unique. You could buy something from Amazon, and just make its CEO even more absurdly wealthy than he already is. Or, you could be part of an experience, a community and a feeling of unity.

You’ve always been amazing in how you support our community while you have fun doing it.

So, stick with us. There is more to come!
