Vendor registration is now OPEN, and so is registration for the Annual Old Rip Car Show! Whether you’re a local business, a food vendor, a crafter, or a car enthusiast, there’s a place for you at RipFest.
This is Eastland’s biggest event of the year, drawing thousands of visitors to our historic downtown. It’s a day filled with food, music, shopping, entertainment, and community spirit—and we need your help to make it the best one yet!
Right now, one of the most impactful ways you can support RipFest is by helping us create a buzz. As we post updates and announcements on the Eastland Chamber of Commerce Facebook page, please like, comment, and share them with your friends and family. Social media support goes a long way in spreading the word and drawing a crowd.
Do you know someone who sells handmade goods, unique products, or delicious treats? Tell them about RipFest and encourage them to register as a vendor!
The more people we bring downtown, the more everyone benefits—our local businesses, our vendors, and our entire community. Let’s work together to make RipFest 2025 the biggest and best yet!
Visit EasltandChamber.com/RipFest for vendor and car show registration details. |
