    This advice I received from a beading artists that has done shows
    for more than 20 years... 

    Avoid shows with some kind of food in the name... people are there
    for the food, not your art: ... BBQ Festival... Strawberry Festival...
    Sweet Potato Festival... 

    Avoid shows with a beach theme... people are there to buy only stuff
    that's $10 and under 

    Avoid shows with music themes... people are there to hear music and
    hang out and will only buy impulse purchases 

    After doing some shows last year that were promised to be good but
    were not for one reason or another (not just the weather), I'm adding
    that it's best to do only shows that you or an artist buddy has
    actually attended. It's the only sure way to know that it's well
    organized, advertised, and draws the type of customer that will buy
    your work. 

Good luck!  Elizabeth
