They wanted elite Yelpers to participate, never corresponded or replied to many of our applications. About 40 food trucks promised...They were 32 short. Some food vendors just had booths but there were only a dozen or so food vendors out of the 40 to 50 promised.
Event organizers are a joke, samples promised with pre-sale packages...not all vendors participated so choices were very limited and some of those claimed they ran out of samples. Vendors were supposed to only accept tokens/tickets...it was some cash, some credit, some wouldn't honor pre-purchsed tickets/tokens. A complete mess with no accountability taken by the event management.
There were supposed to be express lines, but the event organizers didn't hand out the arm bands to the express ticket holders because of low attendance. That didn't stop some rude people from jumping line even though they were told the express line wasn't being honored. It was causing a few squabbles in lines and left vendors not knowing how to handle the situation
Unorganized and over-promised, typical Glendale event. I don't know where the City of Glendale gets these event organizers but they couldn't organize an outhouse let alone a supposedly major food festival.
