I'm a vendor there this year, and have no idea what to expect in terms of crowds, or whether they're in a 'buying mood'. I'm afraid if I don't make enough, I'll sell out, but if I make too much, I'll be sitting on it. Can anyone give me the 'flavor' of the festival?

The organizers don't give you historical data?

What are you vending?

It's a great time, will be super crowded. I went last year and you couldn't find a parking spot it was so full. What are you vending? The flavor is "local Mt. Pleasanter's supporting the shrimping industry. Boat owners, fishermen, and good people that want to see our fishing way of life preserved".

Cape, All they said was expecting 12,000 people. I was very excited to get juried in this year, and will have a table with my usual jewelry, turquoise/gemstones/czech glass, as well as a lot of sea-themed jewelry and authentic sea glass. My shop name is Elementals, my 'real' name is Jackie.

The Blessing is April 27 this year - Mount Pleasant Tourism & Marketing, SC - Blessing of the Fleet & Seafood Festival

Awesome! You should have one heck of a retail day with that type merchandise to sell during the event! Good luck!

The 12,000 estimate might even be underestimating. It's a very popular festival - would compare the crowd to Oyster Festival size.
