Regarding Vendor No show's
We take pride in our show and make every attempt to fill up available space to the best of our ability so that guests have the best selection of vendors available. Reserving tables takes away from the total number of spaces we have available to other vendors. If you ever have any issues and are not able to make it to a show please reach out to us via messanger/email or text to make us aware as soon as you can. We are very understanding that things come up that are out of our control, However, just not showing up or giving any notice makes us look bad to other vendors and to our guests. As part of being a vendor for our show you are required to reach out to us in advance if you are unable to vend the show so that we may attempt to fill your space... Failure to notify us prior to the show date may affect availability to participate as a vendor for future shows.
