I've been selling at my local farmers market this year, and the season goes until the end of October. I'm now researching Holiday and Christmas shows, and I've found two distinct types of events: Smaller holiday "bazaar" types, and large (read: expensive) juried shows. There are three separate juried shows that I'm interested in applying for, but each show has a non-refundable jury fee, and here in the Seattle area where we tend to be a little bit "granola" there is a ton of competition in handmade items. One show that I'm considering had over 6,000 applicants last year! Aside from the increase in foot traffic, what are the benefits of doing a juried show over smaller craft shows (or vice versa)?
