EXPECTATIONS
Vendors are expected to attend the entire duration of the event. If there are health reasons or an emergency preventing you from attending, please contact Mercedes Coppin, Special Events Coordinator, as soon as possible at (561) 600-9097 or at CoppinM@bbfl.us. A vendor that is a no show/no call is not acceptable, as an absence will disrupt the planned layout and appearance of the event.
- All vendors need to be set up and ready to go by the time specified in the vendor packet. There will be no exceptions to this rule.
- All vendors are expected to stay for the entire duration of the event. This rule is applicable even if you exhaust your inventory. Failure to comply will result in exclusion from future events or an additional deposit.
- Vehicles are strictly prohibited from the pedestrian areas during the hours of the event.
PRODUCT STANDARDS
We are specifically looking for vendors who sell merchandise that is related to the theme of the Haunted Pirate Fest and Mermaid Splash, such as: pirate, mermaid, nautical, and renaissance goods.
All vendors, crafters, and artists must sell merchandise related to the theme of the event. No service oriented vendors will be permitted.
All applications are subject to review due to the number of spaces available. The Boynton Beach CRA reserves the right to reject any vendor for any reason without explanation. Possible reasons include, but are not limited to:
- Products that are similar to an existing food or merchandise vendor.
- Products that are not of marketable quality.
- Products that are deemed inappropriate for the event.
