EAST LONGMEADOW — In preparation for the inaugural Go Local Marketplace, Reminder Publishing is currently seeking interested vendors.
Every month, Reminder Publishing’s Go Local magazine features a variety of businesses across Western Massachusetts and northern Connecticut. For the first time, over 20 vendors will gather at the Go Local Marketplace to showcase and sell their goods to readers near and far.
The event — set to take place on Saturday, Oct. 5, from 1-5 p.m. at Brew Practitioners, 45 Baldwin St., East Longmeadow — will feature food trucks, live music and more for all to enjoy.
Reminder Publishing Sales Manager Scott Greene said, “People should attend to experience the best of Go Local magazine in person. For the last decade, Go Local has been all about the stories, the local businesses and our wonderful advertisers, all spotlighted on the pages of the magazine. Now, for the first time, we’re bringing it on the road and presenting the Go Local Marketplace … Think of an outdoor vendor fair with some of the best local businesses on display.”
For Greene, he shared that he is most excited to see which businesses take advantage of this “unique opportunity” to showcase their brands and products.
“It might be something they’ve not had a chance to do before in public outside of their own store/restaurant/establishment,” he said.
From 1-3 p.m., Yves LeBel — Flying Solo will take the stage, followed by Lauren Fleit Music from 3-5 p.m.
On the food front, Dev’s Mac N Eats will be serving delicious bites. At press time, additional food trucks slated to be at the marketplace were not finalized, however, Greene assured that attendees can expect some “added event flavor.”
