Bliss Fest - 2nd Annual

The Main Street Parkville Assocation, Parkville residents, The Kansas City Raw Food Meetup Group, Whole Foods Market, Green Acres, Nature's Pantry, and Evolving Magazine are helping to bring Parkville its second annual Bliss Fest.

If you haven't heard, The Bliss Fest is a celebration of conscious lifestyle featuring food, clothing, and beverage vendors, health and wellness speakers, live music, and demonstration of all sorts of personalized services surrounding the topics of sustainability, health, wealth, and creativity. Last year the event was at "The Treehouse", a piece of privately owned land near downtown Parkville. Bliss Fest 2008 was a huge success measured by attendance nearing 250 people, drawn strictly by word of mouth, and a few creative web posts.

Recently, the City of Parkville unanimously voted to approve the festival for English Landing Park. We'll have print advertising blanketing Parkville and spread throughout the Kansas City Metro Area. Live speakers this year are flying in from all over the US to publicly share their powerful stories of health, wealth, and gratitude. There will be reggae music and other entertainment as well. The reach of this festival has unexpectedly expanded and we're expecting a multitude of attendees traveling from all over the Midwest.

If you or someone you know would be interested in being a vendor or a sponsor there are several ways to so. Logo space is available on (1) the large banner that will hang across the street in Parkville, (2) on la arge banner that will hang on the stage in the park, (3) on the kids tent, and (4) on smaller signage. Donations for a silent auction and a raffle are gladly accepted.

Sponsors currently include Green Acres Market, Sonrisa Salon and Day Spa, Eden Alley, BRAS Breast Cancer Awareness Support, and more. We are offering local businesses and organizations a booth for $35; this is thirty dollars less than the non-resident vendors are paying. If you’re interested in sponsorship for banner logos, please call today details. We’re also accepting service coupons for the raffle. Here is the contact phones for additional questions: 816.785.3454 (Heidi) and 816.898.6177 (Maureen). Please use these same numbers for vendor agreements and general information about the festival.
