We’re excited to announce that registration for Dealer, Flea Market space, and Online Ticket Sales are open!  The VBC has approved an expanded layout which grows the Hamfest from 80K to 140K sq ft, allowing us to safely gather and still maintain social distancing.  See you soon!

Huntsville Hamfest is working with the VBC to finalize the dealer and flea-market layout to ensure the compliance to COVID mandates.  We will open the Ticket Sales, and Vendor Registration portals as soon as we can.  Thank you for your patience and support.

The Hamfest Board has met with the Von Braun Center to learn about the current rules & regulations for mass-gatherings.   In short, the insurmountable obstacles that prevented us from hosting a Hamfest last year have relaxed to the point where we can host a safe and successful event.

Additionally, our survey of commercial and flea-market vendors on their plans to attend returned very encouraging sentiments.

Adjustments to the floor plan are being made to keep everyone safe, in particular 12’ aisle spacing.  Additional space will be utilized this year to accommodate the commercial & flea-market vendors and visitors.  Once that floor plan is defined in a few weeks we’ll open the web portal up for vendor registration.

We highly recommend visitors to purchase tickets on-line this year.  Will-Call windows will be set up to streamline the Saturday morning crush. The ticket web portal will open in a few weeks.

The Hamfest Board is excited at the prospect of hosting a live gathering in a safe way for everyone attending and we look forward to seeing many of our friends again.

Thanks & 73,

Mark N4BCD
