Market Details:
As with our previous market we will have a kids section, however it will be in one of the vacant spaces graciously provided to us by the Village Shopping Centre. We will be forgoing live music, but will have music playing throughout the market. The market will be free to those who wish to attend, but we are asking attendees to bring a non-perishable food item if they are able to; it is not a requirement.
Important things to note:
– We will have a cap of 80 vendors, with the ability to have 10 vendors utilizing 2 tables.
– Vendors must not be in direct competition with any Village Mall boutique. A list of boutiques can be found here (https://www.thevillageshoppingcentre.ca/boutiques/)
– Vendors must provide hand crafted products. Considerations will be made for those who resell and meet Requirement 1.
– Live animals cannot be sold at the Village Mall Market.
– Total vendor area includes a 6 ft table with 1 ft clearance on both ends of the table, and a 4 ft clearance behind the table.
– Each vendor is provided with a 6ft table and 1 chair. If you purchase an additional table, it will come with a second chair.
– Vendors can not bring their own tables or chairs.
– Vendors must work within their space and not have anything past the front of their table or encroaching on another vendor’s space.
– We have limited spaces with access to power and we will prioritize these spaces for vendors that require power to operate. For example, someone needing power for a freezer. We will not be able to provide power for things like lights. We suggest purchasing a battery powered led light if you require it. No power cords are to be run in thoroughfares.
– Tables will be arranged by the market staff. Vendors will be provided a site map 1 week before setup and we will not be accepting change requests.
– All signage must be printed. Handwritten signs are not permitted and we will ask you to remove them.
– Setup will be between 8:00am-9:45am on the morning of the market. If vendors miss this setup time, you will not be permitted to set up and no refund will be issued. Doors open at 10:00am.
– Vendor Takedown begins no sooner than 6:00pm and must be completed by 7:00pm. Market Closes at 6:00pm.
– We do not have carts to aid in off loading your equipment, please bring your own.
