Call to Vendors
We are actively planning the 4th Annual Bethel Holiday Market and we want new vendors! This market has been a huge success over the years. Last year sales were over $10,000. That’s money going straight into our local economy and supporting our local artists.
If you are interested in being a vendor please review the information below and contact us to sign up. We would love to have you!
Bethel Holiday Market
The 4th Annual Holiday Market will be hosted at two locations this year, the Blossom Block and the Arnold Block. This market is a fantastic display of all the talent Bethel has to offer. We will have local artisans, food vendors, and activities for the whole family.
December 6th-8th & 13th-15th. Fridays 4-6pm, Saturdays 9-5, and Sundays 9-3.
There is a $50 booth fee for a 6ft table space that will need to be collected during set up. If you need additional space there will be an increased cost. You must provide your own table and display. You may also restock your inventory throughout the market based on sales.
There will be a centralized checkout for the market so vendors do not have to be there the whole time. The Market takes a 20% commission to cover checkout costs and building costs. If you would like to staff your booth for the entirety of the market and collect your own sales we will not charge a commission.
We will be doing advertising for the Market but you are encouraged to spread the word in your own circles.
Space is limited so sign up soon.
