Diamonds & Dirt™ 2014 Vendor Package

Bringing the Bling Back to Texas!

September 2, 2013 Dear Vendor, We would like to invite you to participate as a vendor March 10-16 at the 2014 Diamonds & Dirt Barrel Horse Classic. With over 2000 contestants from three countries expected to compete in the Futurity, Derby, Open 5D, Sweepstakes and Slot races, Diamonds & Dirt 2014 is shaping up to be an exciting event. In 2013, Diamonds & Dirt was featured on HRTV on May 26th and our marketing team is working hard to increase the media exposure for 2014.

Held at the Brazos County Expo Complex in Bryan, Texas, Diamonds & Dirt 2014 vendors will receive booth space, listing on the DDBHC website and admission to the Night of Diamonds party, benefitting K9s4COPs on Saturday March 15. Booth options include space in the exhibit hall, trailer booths and equine needs booths.

Food and wine tastings will be held in the exhibit hall during the week. Not only will your company receive great exposure and heavy foot traffic, you are guaranteed to have a great time!

The Brazos County Expo Complex is a state-of-the-art indoor facility that offers heating and cooling, with electricity and Wi-Fi billed separately by the facility. Booths are 10x10 for $400, 10x20 for $600 and 10x30 for $800. We will also offer a limited number of larger spaces (prices available upon request). Trailer booths are $500, equine needs booths are $400 and space is limited for both. Booth prices are for the entire week.
