Vendor Resource Page
Last year’s Funfair and Market was such a success that we’ve expanded the event this year, with extended hours from 11:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Just as importantly, we listened carefully to feedback from our vendors and attendees and used it to make meaningful improvements. Our goal is to create a smoother, more profitable, and more enjoyable experience for everyone involved.
This year, vendors will apply to participate so we can create the best experience for our shoppers and vendors. Applications will be reviewed in multiple rounds to help us select a well-balanced mix of vendors, avoid too many similar booths, and maintain strong foot traffic throughout the market. After each application window closes, selected vendors will be notified before the next round opens. Because space is limited, not all applicants may be selected.
Round 1 Closes February 6
Round 2 Closes February 20
Round 3 Closes March 6
After March 6, applications will be reviewed and evaluated on an individual basis.
After a selection round closes you can expect:
Notification of Selection
Request for submission of required licenses and waivers
Payment link for the vendor fee
This years vendor fees reflect the significant change in length of the event and transition for food vendors from a percentage based fee to a flat rate. For more information on what vendors can expect, please see below. All fees are non-refundable beginning April 1.
