What is the event layout?
Vendor booths will be arranged along the main walkways and aisles throughout the store. Each booth will include either a 6-foot or 12-foot table upon request. Please note that these measurements refer to table lengths, not full booth dimensions, so they are not 6x6 feet or 12x12 feet spaces. If you have specific space requirements, please indicate them on your registration form, and we will do our best to accommodate. To encourage traffic flow, there will be two bars positioned at opposite ends of the event.
What is the attendee demographic?
We expect around 500 attendees, primarily women, though men are welcome as well. The age range varies widely, from young adults in their 20s to seniors in their 90s, creating a diverse and engaging crowd.
Can I request a specific booth location?
We do our best to accommodate location requests but cannot guarantee specific spots. Some vendors must be placed in designated areas due to power access restrictions. We also try to space out vendors selling similar products to provide variety throughout the event.
What is the setup process on the day of the event?
When you arrive, check in at the information desk inside the main entrance. Our team will provide your vendor packet and direct you to your designated booth. Setup begins at 12:00 PM and must be completed by 3:30 PM. Attendees typically start lining up for entry around 3:30 PM, so we recommend having everything ready by then. Echter's will have carts available for vendor use during the setup window.
How many drink tickets are included with my registration?
Each vendor registration includes two drink tickets, or three if you have a paid 12-foot booth. Additional drink tickets can be purchased in advance for $5 each and will be included in your vendor packet at check-in. During the event, extra drink tickets will be available for purchase at the information desk for $10 each. Drink tickets can be redeemed at the bar for beer, wine, seltzers, ciders, or soft drinks. Water will also be available for vendors.
How does the raffle work?
Vendors may choose to offer a raffle item to encourage attendees to visit their booth. Your raffle item will be displayed at your booth, and Echter’s will provide entry slips, pencils, and a collection container. You will collect entries throughout the event and select a winner at the end of the night. Once a winner is chosen, you can either leave the item at Echter’s with the winner’s entry slip attached, and we will contact them for pickup, or you can take the prize with you and notify the winner directly. You are welcome to keep any remaining entry slips for your marketing list.
Is there designated vendor parking?
Yes, vendors have designated parking areas. You can use the front parking lot and loading zone for unloading upon arrival. After unloading, vendor vehicles should be moved to the vendor lot, located in the large gated dirt lot on 52nd Street, north of the property. Overflow parking is available at 52nd and Garrison, with access to the main entrance from there. All vendor vehicles must be relocated to the designated lots by 3:30 PM. Parking instructions and maps will be emailed to vendors the week before the event.
What is the cancellation policy?
If you can no longer attend, please notify us as soon as possible. Contact Julie at 303-842-1036 or [email protected]. Refunds will be issued for cancellations made at least 7 days before the event.
