Service
High-throughput service. Every guest gets greeted, walked through flavors, and served at a steady pace through the full window.
Festival Pace
For long festival blocks we replenish supplies between rushes so the line keeps moving — we have not run out at a festival yet.
Cleanup
Fully self-contained pack-out. The cart and our team leave the festival space clean for the next vendor or close-down.

Festival Catering FAQ
Are you available for our festival or community event this season?
Tell us your event date and we will confirm availability — we limit ourselves to two events per day, so dates fill up. Reach out early.
What is your festival pricing?
Packages start at $250 (Rising Star) and go to $550 (Mega Star). Multi-day festivals or 500+ attendee runs get a custom quote based on duration, crowd size, and load-in. Talk to us.
Do you do community fundraisers or nonprofit events?
Yes. We support local community fundraisers and nonprofit events with flexible structures — straight pricing, percentage-back models, or sponsorship arrangements depending on the event. Ask when you inquire.
How quickly can you serve large festival crowds?
Our high-throughput service moves at festival pace. Mega Star ($550) handles up to 150 guests in 120 minutes; we have served larger festival blocks by extending duration or running two stations.
Do you have STFU permits for multi-county operations?
Yes. Snow Stars holds an active Michigan STFU license through Barry-Eaton District Health Department, which covers operation across Michigan counties. We can show the permit on request.
