Application Information

 

If you encounter any difficulty submitting the application please contact us at utahwinterfairvendors@gmail.com

Thank you for your interest in being a vendor at the 7th [2019] Utah Winter Faire.  This year's theme is The Year of the Snow Griffen. We are committed to providing the best vendor experience we can. One of the ways we do this is to be very careful about the mix of products; diversity is very important to us. 

We do have some particular requirements we want our vendors to be aware of:  we do require you to decorate your booth in a Winter theme (not necessarily Christmas), you/any staff MUST be in some sort of costume. We are a three day event, Friday through Sunday.  Your booth must be open and staffed for all three days of the Faire.
​
Submitting an application does not guarantee placement.  Qualified applicants may be requested to provide a picture or sketch of their booth setup, products and costuming ideas for staff.  You will be contacted if selected and an invoice for your booth fee will be sent to the email provided in your application. Your space is NOT guaranteed until payment is received. 


Application process:
We do not use a "first come, first served" process. We select vendors based on fit with the Faire and type of products. We run two selection periods, May 16th to June 30th and July 1st to August 31st if we still have space available. Applications are considered during those periods and accepted vendors notified.  If we have any openings after the second round, applications are considered on a case by case basis. We sell out booth space every year and always have a waiting list for any cancellations that may occur.

Prices for booths are as follows and includes space and access to electricity only.  No furnishings included.  Tables and chairs are available for rent at nominal prices.
