General Questions

How do I become a vendor?

All vendors must submit a completed vendor application through the appropriate application form. Submission of an application does not guarantee space assignment. Applications are processed on a first-come, first-served basis, subject to availability and event layout requirements.

Is my space guaranteed once I apply?

No. Submission of an application does not guarantee a space or a specific location.

I’m a returning vendor — do I get my same space?

Returning vendors are given priority to renew their prior-year location when applications and any required deposits are received by the returning vendor deadline. Priority applies only to the same location and space size.

When are new vendors assigned spaces?

New vendor space assignments are reviewed after the returning vendor renewal period has closed and are based on availability and overall event layout needs.

Space Requests & Changes

Can I request a specific location or space size?

Yes. Vendors may request a preferred location or space size when submitting their application. Requests are noted but not guaranteed and are reviewed after the returning vendor renewal period has closed.

Can I request a space change later?

Space change requests are reviewed after the renewal period and honored only if space is available.

Will my space be held if I request a move?

Returning vendors may hold their prior-year space while a reassignment request is reviewed, provided required deadlines are met.
