There are both indoor and outdoor booth options and you may request your preference on the application. Fees are the same for both. There is a limited number of indoor spaces and they are filled on a first come, first served basis. If you are requesting an indoor booth and will be using any type of panels, be sure to indicate this on your application as we can not change booth location assignments on the day of the event and not all spaces accommodate panels.

All white tent canopies are required for this festival. No color deviation will be allowed, including both the canopy and sidewalls. Tent weights of 40lbs or more are required on each leg of your tent. Artists who fail to properly weight their tent will not be permitted to participate in the market and will not be reimbursed.
