Thank you for your interest in participating as an artisan vendor at the 25th Annual ¿Qué Pasa? Festival, taking place on Saturday, May 30, 2026, from 12:00 PM – 8:00 PM at CarMax Park in Richmond, Virginia.

The ¿Qué Pasa? Festival is one of the largest celebrations of Hispanic and Latin American culture in Virginia, bringing together thousands of attendees for a full day of live music, food, culture, and community.

Artisan vendors play an important role in the festival by showcasing handmade goods, cultural artwork, clothing, jewelry, crafts, and other unique products.
