IMPORTANT INFO TO KNOW:

To maintain the integrity of our vendor events, all new vendors are vetted by FHDA to validate that their offerings fit an event. Selection is based on many factors, with the most important being:

  • All items that fall under Antique/Vintage or Flea categories must be more than 20-25 years old or upcycled from such.
  • The items are appropriate for this event
  • The vendor has previous experience doing similar shows
  • Space availability

COSTS


These costs do not include a small processing fee:

  • 10’ wide x 10’ deep space = $85
  • 10’ wide x 18’ deep space = $120
  • 10' wide x 20' long space = $160

MOBILE FOOD VENDORS: Vendors have already been secured for this event.

RAIN OR SHINE EVENT: This is an outside event and is held rain or shine.

PAYMENT: Vendor agrees to pay the full space price and processing fee at time of registration. No payment can be made on the day of the event—no exceptions.

REFUNDS: Full refunds will be issued up to August 17, 2023. No refunds will be given after this date, including any spaces paid for from August 18, 2023 to September 15, 2023.

SHARING OF SPACE: No sharing of space unless specifically approved by Vendor Coordinator (i.e., vendor is under the age of 18 and a parent must be present).

TOBACCO-FREE EVENT: No devices of any kind—including cigarettes, pipes, e-cigarettes, vaping or similar devices—as well as chewing/coffee tobacco, can be used during setup, tear-down and during event public hours.

CALIFORNIA SELLER’S PERMIT: California law requires that ALL VENDORS have a valid California Seller’s Permit. The Seller’s Permit number must be included in the New Vendor Application. To obtain a California Seller’s Permit, contact the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration at (916) 227-6700. To register online, click on this link to access CDTFA.

SHADE: All vendor events are held outside and there is no “natural” shade to be found.

REGISTRATION OPENS: Registration for this event will open in late May / early June. Please be patient to receive a response from FHDA; the Vendor Coordinator will contact you to begin the vetting process when the registration draws near.

Below are a few more things to know before submitting a New Vendor Application.


A complete set of requirements, policies, and conditions will be provided upon event registration and will include a Vendor Agreement, Event Waivers, and pertinent documents:

  1. Vendors understand that all correspondence from FHDA will take place via email: No US Post Office services will be used. Please add [email protected] to your contacts to avoid emails going to your spam folder and you missing vital communications.
  2. FHDA reserves the right to move a Vendor from one space to another, even if that Vendor received correspondence that he/she has been assigned a particular space. Should the space be more expensive than what the Vendor originally paid, there will be no additional charge. If the space is less than what Vendor originally paid, FHDA will arrange a refund for the price difference.
  3. Because FHDA events are family-friendly, no selling of “adult” items, hate-group items, offensive material and dangerous merchandise.
  4. No items can be displayed or sold that fall under the Endangered Species Act. Info: https://www.fws.gov/le/pdf/FactsWildlifeLaws.pdf 
  5. Vendors understand FHDA provides only spaces. Vendors are responsible for chairs, tables, pop-ups, power cords, etc. For safety reasons, if the vendor uses a pop-up tent or any other structure in his/her space, all items must be properly anchored.
  6. All booths must be neat in appearance and staged appropriately. Items must be clean, clearly priced and in good condition.
  7. Vendors must remove all items, including empty boxes and packing material. Failure to do so may result in Vendor not being invited to participate in future events.

8. No flammable items of any kind are allowed in the booth, including portable propane heaters, generators, gas-filled balloons or space heaters.

9. Vendor understands that no heating or cutting devices of any kind can be used during the event. This includes, but is not limited to, laser cutting and engraving machines, lamination machines, embossing machines, transfer sublimation machines, vacuum heat presses and any kind of heat press machine.

10. Electricity is available only in certain areas of the overall venue and can be purchased for an additional $25 when registering. Vendor must provide own power cords, power strips, etc. and is responsible for securing items in such a way that they do not become a hazard to anyone (i.e., tripping, electrical shock).

11. The Vendor understands that FHDA events are invitation-only, regardless if the Vendor participated in a prior FHDA event(s).
