Our 2026 Riley’s Light Car Show Youth Vendor Lineup is growing, and we could not be more excited about the creativity our young entrepreneurs are bringing to this year’s event.

From glitter tattoos and freeze-dried candy to custom hat bars, handmade jewelry, 3D printed creations, baked goods, crafts, and more, this youth vendor lineup is going to awesome!

And the best part? We are still accepting youth vendors.

If you have a young entrepreneur who would love the opportunity to showcase their products, practice customer service skills, and gain real-world business experience in a fun, supportive environment, there is still time to join us.

Do not forget, one standout youth vendor will take home our Youth Vendor Golden Nugget Award, proudly sponsored by Chick-fil-A of Griffin. Our secret shopper will be making the rounds throughout the event, visiting booths, hearing each vendor’s story, and recognizing one exceptional young entrepreneur for their presentation, creativity, and customer service.

Saturday, June 13
10:00 AM–2:00 PM
Christ Chapel | Zebulon

Come shop small, support local youth talent, and help us cheer on these amazing young entrepreneurs.
