Market FAQs
What kind of foot traffic can I expect?
Foot traffic varies depending on the time of year, weather, marketing efforts, and other local events. We post the market on Facebook, Eventbrite, Nextdoor, Pintrest, and around Old Town Spring visitors and businesses, via our marketing manager.
We also encourage vendors to promote their participation—shared promotion makes a big impact!
Please note: While we strive to drive consistent traffic, attendance is never guaranteed. Vendors who engage with shoppers, stay off their phones during market hours, have eye-catching displays, and promote their booth in advance typically see stronger results.
How do I become a vendor?
To apply, complete the vendor registration form on our website. Once submitted, we’ll review your application and respond within 1 - 2 business days.
Is there a fee to participate?
Yes. Booth fees vary based on location (indoor/outdoor) and the number of days booked. Details can be found on the "Book Your Space" page.
What types of vendors are accepted?
We prioritize handmade, vintage, art, food, and curated boutique items. MLMs and resale-based businesses are reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
How do I pay my booth fee?
Payments can be made via our website. Instructions are sent after your application is approved. Payment secures your space and must be received by the posted deadline.
What happens if I need to cancel?
Cancellations must be made in writing. Refunds or credits are not guaranteed and are subject to our cancellation policy. Please review the full policy before booking.
Is electricity available?
Yes, electricity is included with both indoor and outdoor booths. Please bring your own extension cords and power strips if needed.
Do I need to bring my own table and canopy?
No. Outdoor vendors do not need a canopy or weights. Vendors must bring their own tables and setup materials.
When and where is setup?
Setup begins at 9:30 am for booth indoor and outdoor vendors. Detailed load-in instructions are emailed the week of the event. Please arrive on time and be fully set up by 10:45 am.
What are the market locations?
Indoor | 113 Midway Street, Old Town Spring
Outdoor "The Porch" | 119 Main Street, Old Town Spring
What if it rains?
Both markets proceed rain or shine unless dangerous weather is expected. The outdoor market is covered, so there is protection from the elements.
Can I share a booth with another vendor?
Yes, booth sharing is allowed, but both vendors must be approved and listed in advance. Additional fees may apply. If vendors are found to be sharing a booth without prior approval, they will be asked to leave.
How do I contact the event team?
All vendor questions must be posted in the Facebook vendor group. Please do not call personal phone numbers for general event-related inquiries.
