Interested in applying to booth at the market?

We use LocalStalls.com for applications, scheduling, and registration fee processing.

What kind of items are allowed?

All items must be over 35 years old. Reproductions or “retro” items are not allowed. Please no broken or heavily soiled items. Items that need slight restoration and/or elbow grease are fine, but please keep in mind this event is marketed with an emphasis on items for the home.

Registration

When is the registration cut off?
There are approximately 45 vendor spots available for each month’s market. Once a month’s market is full, that date will be grayed out on the registration page.

How soon after I apply for the market will I know if I've been accepted?
Once you have submitted your market application, we will reach out within one week to let you know if you’ve been approved. 

When will I receive my market placement?
We send out the vendor placement map 2 days before the market.

Logistics 

What size is a booth and how much does it cost to register?
A stall at the market requires a non-refundable payment of $180 for a 17’ w x 15’ d space (the size equivalent of two parking spaces). If you need additional space, you will need to book two spaces. Half spaces are not available.  Please include any requests for space placement at the time of booking. We will do our best to accommodate your requests for specific spaces, but there is no guarantee.

Can I share a booth?
Booth sharing is allowed with another invited dealer. If the dealer has not participated in a past market, they will need to submit a market application and be approved. If you are sharing a space with another invited dealer, be sure to state the vendor’s name, email, and phone number in your registration. 

Can I borrow or rent tables, chairs, or tents?
We do not rent any fixtures. Vendors are responsible for bringing their own fixtures. Pop up tents are very much advised as the market gets a good deal of sun.

When is load-in/load-out?
Load-in is from 7:00am - 9:00am. We ask that vendors arrive no earlier than 7:00am and unload as quickly as possible and park their vehicle. Load-out is from 3:00pm - 5:00pm. The lot must be cleared by 5:00pm when the gates are locked.

Where can I park?
Vendors have use of the ACE parking lot across the street on Jefferson. There is no parking allowed on the side of the lot marked “ACE HARDWARE”. There is a white line on the ground that demarcates the ACE side of the lot when facing the lot from the vintage market. Please do not park to the right of that site line.

Can I leave the market early?
Leaving the market early is not permitted. We ask that vendors pack up no earlier than when the market ends at 3:00pm. Packing up early may result in not being allowed to participate in the market again.

Are there bathrooms?
There is a bathroom available to vendors and we will send out that information a few days prior to the market. Public restrooms can also be found inside Narrative and across the street at World Market.

Booth & Event Cancellation

How do I cancel?
We ask that vendors provide as much notice as possible if they need to cancel, however, registration payments are nonrefundable.

What happens if it rains?
If rain is imminent, we will email all registered vendors the Thursday before the market date and rollover to the following Saturday. If you cannot/do not want to participate on the rollover date, you must reply to the rollover date email within 24 hours in order to receive a refund of your registration.
