PARKING INFO:
Due to limited parking options and to encourage attendees to use public transportation if possible, we suggest taking BART to the Lake Merritt station (just a 10 minute walk away). There is also a free 4 hour public parking across the street at the Kaiser Convention Center (one entrance on Lake Merritt Blvd and one entrance on 10th and Fallon), but those spots will fill up quickly in the morning. There is also limited metered street parking available near the event.

We are currently at capacity with vendors. If you have any questions or are interested in being a vendor at next years event, you can send us a message or an email to info@oaklandveg.com.
