The other bummer was that the vending started at the same time as the Saturday seminars I’m sure I missed out on seeing some good stuff that was bought by someone else, I wish the vendors could have stayed set up longer too as we were in the seminars most of the day but understand the need to make room for the bands to play.

All in all we had such a great time we are already making plans for next year thank you to everyone involved in making Tiki Oasis such a great time.

My room was open for sales till 3am Fri and Sat night , the joys of a vending suite.

I would not be surprised to see the large hotel conference center that was almost finished housing the vendors next year .
It was near where the car show was and could easily hold ALL the vendors. By clearing the pool area, and the stage seating area they could have entertainment or bands all day. By keeping the grass and pool area open it would give a less crowded feel to the event.

Im sure some vendors will hate being inside but not having to breakdown twice might be a small trade off.

!!!!!!!! This of course is just a GUESS I have no inside info as to next years event!!!!!!!!!!
