Hi there, I edited your post to remove the specifics. Sometimes it's better to generalize things so the topic can stay focused on your actual question and not get diverted into political discussions. I've also made your title more "relevant" to the real question being asked.

The normal ways. newspapers, craigslist, classifieds, etc.

If you do a forum search for events, you'll find lots of topics that will go over preparing for events and outside selling.

You also might want to check with the organizers of the event if you are going to be an exhibitor. They have a manual which will give you the local rules about selling etc.

Yes you will need a re-sale license for Denver, CO there is going to be a lot of people here during that event, That is why I am leaving for the week its going to be a ZOO.
As per employees you might think of Craigslist to hire some help

I, too, live in Denver, and had thought about making some political tees to sell. But I am thinking of going to Magic/Las Vegas instead, because as AMC said, it will be a zoo here in Denver.
How about wholesale? An option you might consider is contacting places were conventioneers will frequent, and selling wholesale to them. In addition to local gift and t-shirt shops, there are also many bars, restaurants and nightclubs that might have an interest, if you have a unique tee design. The small, locally owned bars and restaurants (rather than big chains) might be particularly interested. Conventioneers will probably be walking the 16th street mall, so shops and bars along there are a good start. Lodo is also another area of Denver with lots of little restaurants and clubs.
