BASE COST, ADDITIONAL FEES, & HOW TO PAY:

To exhibit all vendors are required to have a transient vendor’s license (it costs $25.00 to obtain one) this allows you to sell at a public venue, and the city does come and inspect frequently. A copy of your vendor’s license is due at the latest, the Monday before the event (you can still send in your app with payment while you await the license to arrive). You can find the form to obtain a license here.

​

The cost to participate in this event is $125.00 (6ft x 3ft space) or $150 (10x10 space) this includes a 6ft x 3ft space. Please no tents as this is an indoor event! Vendors are to provide their own setup (tables and chairs are not included).

​​

Please note, your uploaded application/contract must accompany your fee and will not be considered complete until both are received. 

​

Deadline to register for this event is either till we are full, or the Wednesday prior to the event, whichever happens first.

​

SHOW SPACE:

Participating vendors will receive a 6ft x 3ft foot assigned space to use. Vendors are required to provide their own setups completely. This includes tables, table covers, chairs etc. (THIS IS NOT A BOOTH SETUP SHOW)

• If you require more than one booth space, please feel free to register for multiple booth spaces. Each additional space is an additional $125.00 or $150.00. You cannot mix and match booth sizes. If you sign up for a 6ft space and want multiple spaces, it has to be the same size space, same with a 10x10 space. 

​​

ELECTRICITY:

At this time electric hookups are unavailable for this show. You are more than welcome to bring your own battery-operated lighting for use in your space.

We are working to recruit food trucks that will be on site for this show. We plan to have a few on site.
