So the Vendor area is open to the public (no ticket required)? That's kinda cool.Wompwomp, looks like we are not going.We only have so much headspace and time and unfortunately this show won’t work out. They are accepting vendor applications right now though with payment roughly due Feb. 1st. I think the tables are only $100, and the vendor event is open to the public! Vending is from 9 am to 8 pm, very long hours! So sounds like a possibly lucrative weekend.

Yep, the show and vendors are free with a ticket to the gardens. It isnt immediately clear on the ABS site, so I asked a few months ago:

I'm tempted to fly in for it, but I'd want to do at least 1 tree workshop if I'm going to make the trip. Then how to get the tree back with me...
I assume it's very doable to pack a shohin-sized tree in a carry on. Anyone have ideas for larger trees?

Carol, we could split driving duties!It's too far for me.
I can't stand sitting in a car for more than like 3 hours and I have no sense of direction and would get us totally lost.

You would not have made it on my family christmas roadtrips. We would drive a whole day from Denver to central nebraska, and then a whole day from Nebraska to Wisconsin... 8 or so hours each
Edit: and then back!!!
No, I wouldn't. That sounds like a nightmare.
