This year’s SangriaFest will include the debut of the NEW! ArtsQuest trailer presented by Burkholder’s Heating and Air Conditioning, Inc. ArtsQuest worked with local dealer, Cotner Trailers to purchase the 26-foot-long air-conditioned trailer stocked with two service windows, eight lockable cabinet doors, overhead cabinets for display space, 50-amp electrical service, a refrigerator and more! This new multi-functional trailer will primarily be used as a mobile box office for events like SangriaFest as well as at the Wind Creek Steel Stage at Musikfest and for a plethora of events and functions that may include bar service, merchandise, volunteer check-in location and other features for programming events.

“As ArtsQuest’s premier HVAC service provider, we were thrilled to join forces and craft a one-of-a-kind trailer that blends art and HVAC innovation together,” commented Bob Burkholder, President, Burkholder’s Heating & Air Conditioning, Inc. “This partnership elevates the festival experience for all attendees while providing a cool environment for employees and volunteers to escape the summer heat.”
