Vendor Registration
Vendor registration is now open! In 2024, we will have two 40’x40′ tents available for vendors, resulting in 18 booth spaces. A 10’x10′ booth space is $65, and an 8’x10′ booth space is $55. If you prefer outdoor space due to the nature of your products, we are happy to welcome outdoor vendors, too ($55 per booth). The vendor application form is available here.
What to expect with registration:
- Upon completion of the application form, the Plymouth Maple Association will review your information and will determine if you are a fit for this event. Preference will be given to vendors who feature products that are handmade and consist primarily of natural materials (wood, fabric, paper, etc.). Applications will be reviewed on a first-come, first-served basis.
- If you are approved as a vendor, we will notify you via email and will send you an invoice via PayPal. Once payment is received, your booth space is reserved.
- We will send you a vendor promo pack via email as the festival nears. This will assist you in promoting your presence at the festival.
Vendor Guidelines
- Vendor set up time starts at 7:30 a.m., and takedown must be done by 2 p.m. Vehicles will be permitted to drive up to the asphalt area near the vendor tents during setup, but all vehicles must be clear of that area and parked on the street or in the parking lot by 8:30 a.m. All vendors are asked to bring their own table & chairs.
- Vendors can purchase a 10×10 foot spot for $65 each or a 8’x10′ booth space for $55 each.
- Limited power is available for an additional charge of $5. Please let us know if you need power. Vendors are asked to bring their own durable outdoor cord & take responsibility for it not creating a tripping hazard for guests.
