Tents are strongly encouraged at this outdoor event, given our rain or shine policy. If you don't have a tent, there are a limited number of tented spaces available for an additional $25/day. All vendors must bring their own tables and chairs. All activity of an exhbit must be contained in the allocated space. Vendors are responsible for their entire display including full-length table cloths (to cover any items stored beneath tables) and business signs or banners. Vendors may not staple, tape, nail, attach, or otherwise affix posters, displays or signs to any walls or floors and further not to mark, paint, drill into or any way deface the property.
Cancellation Policy: We offer a 50% refund upon emailed notification to the URBNmarket received up until 60 days prior to your scheduled event(s). Unfortunately, we can not offer refunds for cancellations within 60 days of your scheduled event due to the administrative work already done by this time and loss of revenue to the URBNmarket. If a seller must cancel after paying the vendor fee, he/she must email the URBNmarket so that another seller may be pulled from the waitlist. No-shows forfeit their right to participate in future shows. Vendors can not "sell" or "rent" their space to another vendor if they are unable to participate - we do maintain a waitlist and reserve the right to fill spots as we see appropriate.
Inclement Weather: This is an outdoor event, held rain or shine. There will be no refunds due to inclement weather.
Sharing Space: You may share a space with another vendor, BUT you must apply together. This is a juried event so we must approve both of you. All fees will be paid in full by one individual, not separately.
