SETUP

*The market is indoors, and the food trucks are outside.

*The rental cost DOES NOT INCLUDE WALLS, PARTITIONS, TENT, OR TABLES; it only covers the space. Each vendor brings what they need. Seting up walls are not mandatory.

*Electricity will be available. Each stand can use one connection. Connections are spaced between every 2 or 3 stands, bring an extention of approximately 10 meters.

*Cooking food inside is prohibited. If you wish to sell food inside, it must bring it cooked.

*Food truck spaces do not include tables or tents; you may bring your own furniture if you wish.

*Setup will take place the day before, from 9:00 am to 8:00 pm. You may arrive at any time within those hours.

*Everyone must be fully set up by 10:00 am, and dismantling before the event ends is prohibited. If you begin dismantling before the event ends, your deposit will not be refunded.

*If you haven't arrived and started setting up your space by 9:30 a.m. on the day of the event, we reserve the right to assign the space to another business without a refund.

*Dismantling will take place after the event. There will be no opportunity to pick up on another day.

*It is forbidden to place anything outside your designated space. It is forbidden to put up banners anywhere other than within your designated space (unless you have paid for sponsorship; more information below in the advertising section). Standing or sitting in the aisle is also prohibited. If you use more space than you paid for, you will be warned, and if you continue to use more space, you will be asked to leave the event without a refund of your deposit.

*It is forbidden to drill into walls or floors. If you apply tape to walls or floors, you must remove it completely, ensuring no adhesive residue remains. It is preferable to use only special floor tape.

​​

CATEGORIES

*A limited number of businesses will be accepted from each category, at our discretion.

*To obtain brand exclusivity (ensuring no one else sells the same brand as you), everything you sell at your stand must be from that brand. You cannot share your space with anyone else, and you must be the first to register. Therefore, it is important that you list the brands you wish to sell on the registration form. If someone has brand exclusivity and you did not mention the brand name of the product you want to sell, you will not be able to sell that product.

*In a space of 2x2 meter can only be one business, and a maximum of two businesses can occupy a 3x3 meter space. All businesses must be approved by us.

*We do not accept "Concept Stores" and "Showrooms" (busnisseses that sell products for others)

*If you have selected a space next to another business selling the same type of product, we will ask you to choose a space in a different aisle.

*The sale of drugs, weapons, prescription medications, and sex toys is prohibited.

*Only locally produced or packaged alcoholic beverages will be accepted. Consuming alcohol during the event is prohibited.

​​​​

ADVERTISING

*Paid advertising for the event will be placed in various media outlets.

*We will let you know later how many photos and videos we need of your product for advertising purposes.

*It is prohibited for anyone who has not rented a space to distribute flyers or business cards to customers or vendors. If you see someone doing this, please let me know. You may do so, as long as you do not interrupt people while they are at another person's booth.

*SPONSORSHIP: We offer the option of placing a banner at the market entrance or table area (we will assign the location). The banner must be mounted on a tripod or other structure, with a maximum width of 100 cm. This costs $500 for those who have rented a booth.

CLEANING

*Trash cans will be available in the seating areas.

*We will hire cleaning staff to keep the aisles, restrooms, and tables clean.

*Each person is responsible for keeping the floor of their space clean.

*At the end of the event, each person must leave the floor and walls (if you were on a wall) of their space clean. Failure to do so will result in the forfeiture of the deposit.

*There will be a limited number of brooms and mops available for use; please return them to their designated place after use.


GENERAL RULES

*If you have children at the market, they must be supervised at all times. If they break anything, you will be responsible for the damages and will forfeit your deposit. You must also supervise your children on setup day.

*You must always treat your fellow vendors, customers, and market staff with respect.

*On setup day, it is prohibited to enter another business's stand without their permission. We will have staff available to assist with supervision.

*Reserving and filling out an application for another person is prohibited if you will not be sharing the space.

*You must share this information with everyone who will be assisting you before, during, and after the event.

CANCELLATION POLICY

*If you cancel, only your deposit and 50% of the booth cost will be refunded (if you only paid 50%, then only the deposit will be refunded). After November 1st, there are no refunds, only the deposit. If you do not attend the event without notifying us at least 3 days in advance, the deposit will not be refunded.

*You can transfer your space as long as we authorize the business to whom you wish to transfer it.

*Once you have paid for and chosen your space, you cannot change it. If you try to do so, it will be considered that you canceled and then rented another space. (This means you would lose half the cost of the space you had.)

*If the event is canceled due to weather, pandemic, or anything beyond our control, there will be no refund.
