FAQ
BOOTH INFORMATION
The cost per booth is $150. When submitting your payment, please be sure to include your business name in the comments and a link to your business in the comments. Please read the cancelation policy for more information. Each booth is approximately 10x10 feet. Each booth will be measured and marked for our vendors. We ask that our vendors remain mindful of their neighbors and keep their displays within their designated space. This will also help with the flow of the event and keep the pathways from becoming too congested. Booths will be placed strategically to be as fair as possible to each vendor meaning that if you are selling jewelry you won't be placed in a space next to someone who also sells jewelry.
