#fatd market vendor application

This is for our Holiday Market

December 21st, 8am-2pm

PLEASE READ THE INFORMATION BELOW BEFORE COMPLETING YOUR VENDOR APPLICATION.

Below you will find our vendor application - please note this is just an application and we will evaluate each one individually. We get a ton of folks applying to be vendors and due to space, we cannot accept everyone. We currently accept 24 vendors under the tent and 36-48 vendors to bring their own tents.

Priority goes to those that make their own products or put their own special twist on pre-made items and those that have a strong social media presence to help get the word out about our market. Please note that with the exception of some of our previous vendors, we do not accept direct-sales companies - not because we don't love you, but because that's the feedback we've gotten from those that have attended our markets in the past as most of them say they already have a <insert company name> person that they consistently shop with.

A LITTLE BIT ABOUT OUR MARKETS

Our markets are attended by over 2000 visitors shopping with our talented vendors so we are once again calling all local makers, crafters, artists, small business owners, and home business owners who'd like to showcase their products at our market!

We are looking for folks who create unique items that can't be found at the mall! Items that have a story behind them, that show the work and love that go into creating something special. Sound like you? We'd love for you to be a part of our market!

Vendor spaces include spots under a HUGE tent, as well as bring-you-own tent spots. We'll have the usual Farmer and the Dail treats and sweets available that day, as well as a bounce house for kids to help get people to stay around, eat, hang out, and shop. Making your space interactive and fun while displaying your products is what will help make the market a success!

The vendor fee for this event is $125 to set up under the big tent. If you'd like to bring your own 10x10 tent, you can do so with a reduced fee of $75.

These will be set up outside of the main tent.

Vendors must be set up by 7:30am on market morning and must stay until 2pm (no exceptions!).
This event is outside (rain or shine!).

Please note that since it's outside, there is no wifi so make sure you are bringing your Ipad/IPhone/whatever you use to run credit cards completely charged and connected to a device that doesn't need wifi to work (ex. an iPad with a cellular internet connection or your phone with Square).

We will have the tent set up and marked off with numbered spots so you know exactly where to go.

Please note that vendors are responsible for providing their own tables to set up their space. Unsupervised Friday set up time will be available.

Electricity is NOT available.

Generators: Generators are not allowed under the tent or in the bring your own tent area.
Please bring long enough cords to reach outside of the vendor area β€” we don’t want anyone inhaling exhaust fumes!

Since we have a limited number of vendor spots, we are very selective in the businesses that we choose.  We try to evaluate each application to make sure we are choosing a good mix of vendors with a variety of unique products that our customers will enjoy shopping. We try to accept a variety of vendors to create the best shopping experience for our customers - usually no more than 3-4 vendors per category (some categories have more, such as jewelry, clothing or home decor).
