Vendor Placement and Setup Instructions

Due to our new location at the Grand Teton Mall, we will be managing all vendor placements on a first-come, first-served basis on the morning of ​the event. This approach does not apply to our esteemed sponsors, who will have designated spots.

Important:

• Arrival Time: No vendor is allowed on the lot before 8:30 AM. Any attempt to access the area earlier will result in removal from participation in ​the event—no exceptions.
  
• Communication: Our team will only have access to the grounds on the morning of the event for setup. As such, please refrain from contacting ​staff members before 8:30 AM. This will ensure that we can organize the space efficiently and fairly.
  

We appreciate your cooperation and understanding as we make these necessary adjustments to ensure a smooth and successful market day.

Due to the scale of the event and the number of participating vendors, our event team will be focused on overseeing the overall setup and ​​ensuring that the event infrastructure is in place and running smoothly. As a result, we kindly ask that each vendor arrange for their own setup ​​assistance. This means that you will need to bring any necessary helpers to assist with your booth setup, decoration, and preparation for the ​​event day.

We recommend coordinating with your team or helpers in advance to plan your setup efficiently. This will include unloading, assembling your ​​booth or display, and getting everything ready before the event begins. Please ensure that your helpers are aware of the setup times and any ​​other relevant information to make the process as seamless as possible.

Breakdown Instructions:

All vendors are required to maintain their setup until the official conclusion of the event.. Early breakdown disrupts the event’s atmosphere and ​​can negatively impact the experience for attendees and fellow vendors. We want to maintain a lively and engaging environment right through to ​​the end of the event, allowing every vendor and attendee to make the most of the entire day.

During breakdown please note:

• Cars are not allowed onto the event lot
  
• Check your station for any trash such as wrappers, tape, zip ties etc.
  
• Be respectful of neighboring businesses
  

Booth & Space Details:

To create a harmonious and accessible environment for all attendees and participants all vendors are required to stay at their designated 10x10 ​​storefront. Maintaining your setup within this allocated area ensures a few crucial things:

Safety and Accessibility: Keeping aisles and walkways clear for attendees, other vendors, and emergency services.

Fairness: Ensuring every vendor has equal visibility and space to showcase their products or services.

Overall Experience: Contributing to a structured and pleasant shopping experience for our guests.

Vendor Requirements:

Each vendor is responsible for providing all necessary equipment for their booth. This includes chairs, tables, canopies, and any other items ​​required to create an inviting and functional space for your visitors. Please plan to bring any equipment you will need to operate independently ​​throughout the event.

Payment Processing and Sales:

Please be prepared to handle all aspects of customer transactions directly. This includes managing cash, credit card payments, and any other ​​form of payment you intend to accept at your booth. We encourage you to consider portable payment options or mobile data plans for credit ​​card processing, as there will be no Wi-Fi or internet connections available to vendors at the event site.

Zero Tolerance Policy on Harassment:

We firmly uphold a zero-tolerance policy towards any form of harassment or inappropriate behavior at The Falls Markets. This includes, but is not ​​limited to, unwelcome behavior, comments, or actions that could be deemed rude, disrespectful, offensive, or discriminatory towards any/all ​​event staff, vendors, business owners, or attendees.

It is crucial that all interactions within the event premises reflect professionalism, respect, and courtesy. We expect every vendor to contribute to ​​a safe and positive experience for all, adhering to the highest standards of conduct. Any breach of this policy will be taken seriously and may ​​result in immediate removal from the event without a refund.

No Refund Policy:

All Falls Market events hold in place a NO REFUND POLICY. No refunds will be processed under any circumstances, including but not limited to, ​​removal for policy violations.

Booth Management:

Vendors must keep their booth manned at all times during the event hours and maintain their booth area clean and organized. All materials and ​​products should be contained within the designated space.

Noise Control & Media:

To ensure our event remains enjoyable for all attendees, including families with children, we have a couple of important guidelines regarding the ​​use of multimedia displays and music at your booths:

Family-Friendly Content:

All multimedia content, including music, videos, and any form of audio-visual presentation, must be suitable for a family audience. Please ensure ​​that your content is free of explicit language, imagery, or themes.

Volume Levels:

While we appreciate the dynamic atmosphere that music and multimedia can add to your booth, it's important to keep volume levels at a ​​respectful and non-disruptive level. This ensures that all vendors can effectively communicate with their customers and that all attendees have a ​​pleasant experience.

Waste Management:

Vendors are responsible for managing their own waste and ensuring their area is clean during and at the conclusion of the event.

No Smoking Policy:

Smoking is not permitted in the vendor areas or any public spaces within the event premises. This includes the use of e-cigarettes and any other ​​smoking devices. We ask that you respect this rule to maintain a clean and healthy environment for all attendees and participants.

Cancellation Policy:

We understand that unforeseen circumstances can arise, leading to the need to cancel your participation in the event. While we accept ​​cancellations, please be reminded that all registration fees are non-refundable. We encourage you to consider your ability to participate carefully ​​before committing to the event.

No-Show Policy:

Consistency and reliability are crucial for the success of The Falls Market summer events. If a vendor fails to show up without providing written ​​notice in advance, it will regrettably result in exclusion from participating in any future events organized by us as well as a $50 "No Show Fee". ​​Written notice helps us manage the event more effectively and opens opportunities for other vendors on our waiting list.
