Approved = we want you!
Confirmed = your spot is secured!

Being approved means our team has reviewed your application and would be happy to have you participate in Amsterdam Tea Festival. Being confirmed is the next step: your required participation payment has been received and your participation is secured. At that point, you can confidently arrange your travel and accommodation and start preparing everything for the festival.

Pay the €100 deposit to confirm your workshop.

Once your workshop host application is approved, you’ll receive an invoice for the €100 deposit. Your workshop is confirmed once that invoice is paid. This allows us to reserve your table, facilities, date and time slot, publish and promote your workshop, prepare the workshop setup, and manage ticket sales through the official ticketing platform.

Your invoice is issued next.

Once your exhibitor application is approved, we issue your invoice. To keep the price of the wave you registered under, payment must be completed before that wave ends. If payment arrives after the deadline, the invoice must be updated to the next applicable wave price. Your stand is secured only after payment is completed. For the full pricing and wave deadlines, please check the Presentation Deck.

No — applications are submitted online.

This year, the application process is fully digitalized to make participation more organized and transparent. Go to amsterdamtfestival.com, create an account, and choose the application form for your participation type: Exhibitor or Workshop Host. Complete the required information, read and sign the applicable rules, and submit your application. Our team will then review it and let you know whether your participation has been accepted.

Send us a little introduction!

Email us at amsterdamteafestival@gmail.com and tell us briefly that you would like to join the volunteer program. Include your country, email address, and phone number. We’ll review your request and, if accepted, add you to the volunteer chat, where your onboarding will begin.

No.

Only registered exhibitors may sell products at the festival. This allows us to verify participating businesses, protect visitors, and stay on top of applicable local regulations. Workshop hosts participate to provide their workshop service and cannot use their workshop space to sell products.

When applying, select your preferred stand type from the available options. If you have a location preference, tell the organisers what matters to you, for example the area you prefer, the type of products you sell, whether you need electricity, and any special requirements. When contacting the organisers, please make sure to give them the exact table code, which will have a format similar to this example B-F0039. This allows us to identify the table you want and book the correct spot for you, subject to availability. Final table numbers and locations are assigned by the organiser according to the festival layout and availability.

It’s online and interactive!

You can find the floor plan directly on the Amsterdam Tea Festival website homepage by scrolling down to the floor plan section. You can also open the live floor plan directly below and explore the available tables before choosing your preferred spot.

Once your €100 deposit invoice is paid, your workshop is confirmed!

To receive the invoice, you must have a legally registered business or self-employed/sole proprietorship status in your country and be able yourself also to issue a valid business invoice. The €100 deposit is non-refundable and secures your selected workshop table, facilities, date, and time slot.
