Cultural Booths
The North Texas Irish Festival has, for many years, invited local
and regional cultural organizations to participate in the weekend
activities. We
believe that our festival is an appropriate setting for their
displays, exhibits and fundraising activities. In this way, we can help
promote your organization and enrich the experience of those who attend.
In the spirit of cultural partnership we offer all
not-for-profit cultural organizations to complete the application
form that is available here and submit it to our cultural booth
manager no later than February 14th 2003. Please note that booth
space is limited, and we will operate on a first come, first served
basis.
The
festival has grown significantly in recent years and now is
considered to be one of the largest Irish festivals in the nation
and is now Dallas’ largest music festival. We are very proud that the festival has enjoyed this success,
but we realize that improvements are needed to enrich this event
even more. We welcome your
support and participation in this matter.
Please also note that we do have some very simple rules that
govern the inclusion of your organization in this area. They are as follows:
-
Our festival is not an appropriate setting for political or
religious issues, sectarian or partisan disputes or any other
matter which detracts from the cultural aspects of our
heritage.
-
Booth space within the Cultural Area is limited to cultural,
non-profit organizations.
-
We reserve the right to refuse admittance to any individual,
entity or organization, who in our sole opinion seeks to promote
anything that is political, religious, sectarian or partisan in
nature.
-
We reserve the right to refuse admittance to any
organization, that restricts membership to any class based on
race, color of skin, religion, ethnicity or gender or which
supports or promotes such restrictions.
-
We ask all participating organizations to limit goods sold to
those of a cultural nature or those which promote their
organization. T-shirts, commemorative items, locally produced
CDs, raffle tickets or works of art sold for fundraising
purposes are permissible.
