Hey hey there!

Read ALL OF THIS. We will not respond to inquiries if it has already been addressed in this application. At the end of the application form, you will get a copy of your response. If you do not receive one - please email us to verify your application has come through or submit again. Technology is not always 100% and if we do not receive your application within the allotted timeframe, we cannot reopen bookings. Please go back and review your application results if you have questions.
Please note: We will accept NO hate at this event. Period. End of story. We will not argue about our policies.
Applications will be open from Friday November 14th 2025 until Friday December 26th at Midnight.
Event Info:
- Venue: Thorncliffe/Greenview Community Association
- The event will run Saturday May 30th, 2026 from 11am to 6pm.
- All ages.
- Pay-what-you-can entry.
The event will be fully indoors, and vendors will be allotted the option of a either on or two 6' x 4' spaces. We will be accepting a minimum of 90 vendors.
This will be an all-ages event, with no required entry fee, however we will be requesting donations from patrons and vendors for a TBD local community-centered organization.
The space is accessible with handicapped parking stalls, and accessible washrooms, as well as a ramp on the exterior of the building. If you are an artisan vendor, please do not expect to have access to power or outlets. If you are a food vendor, please specify if you will need access to power.
We have very minimal onsite parking, so we ask all vendors to move their vehicles to the street after load-in to provide space for attendees. One more space in that parking lot means one more patron to potentially sell to! Please don’t be the reason someone drives on by!
Applicant info:
This is a fully curated event! That means that we will be selecting applicants based on uniqueness and how they fit with the rest of the event participants. We will be selecting a little bit of every category, and trying to keep things fresh in each market. We want to showcase the weird and wonderful, alternative, and handmade stuff out there.
Things we will not accept:
- MLMs of any kind.
- Any work made with AI.
- Work that incorporates the use of restricted animal parts (please check our local laws).
- Absolutely no REAL bat carcasses (and I implore you look into the use of bats in the oddities trade).
- No Harry Potter references - indirect or otherwise.
- No live animals for sale.
If you are selling food or beverages - you must display your ingredients and sell in accordance with Alberta health standards.
We reserve the right to request that something is removed from your table if it does not comply with our rules. If something is on your table that we specifically stated could not be there, we will take note of it and you may not be accepted back for future vending opportunities. We will not answer questions in regards to why the above listed items are not permitted.
If you are applying to tattoo on-site, you will be required to submit your info to AB Health services and send confirmation to the team at PRFMYYC (we will send you the form once you receive your approval). You are responsible for knowing the requirements to tattoo in a public setting and bring the required equipment.
