SHOW DETAILS

Applications are separate for each event. All vendor applicants are reviewed to protect the integrity and ensure variety of the Show. The number of similar products will be regulated. These are outdoor shows on grass, with no rain date and no refunds for inclement weather or vendor cancellation.
Booth spaces are limited and available on a first-come, first-serve basis. Any requests for specific booth locations during application will be considered but not guaranteed. Payment online or by check must be received before applications are processed. You will receive confirmation of show registration within 5-10 business days.

• All sales activities must be confined to the limits of your booth. Aisle solicitation is not allowed.
• Spaces may not be shared or sublet without approval of event officials.

• The artist/crafter is expected to be present during the entire Show.
• All participants are expected to act professionally and responsibly, as at a place of business. Event officials may prohibit or evict participants who detract from the general character of the Show. Aggressive behavior towards other participants or event officials will result in expulsion.

• Vehicles may use the Torpy Park paved lot to load and unload. Per the Town of Minocqua, VEHICLES AND TRAILERS ARE NOT ALLOWED ON THE GRASS!
• All booth spaces are located on natural grass. Some terrain may be slightly inclined or uneven. As Torpy Park is a public space, there may be others present at the park and beach at any time.
• The Town of Minocqua is instituting a new parking fee system for select downtown streets and lots in 2025. The Visitors Bureau will pass along parking information that may affect event vendors or visitors as soon as it becomes available. The Visitors Bureau is not responsible for any parking tickets that may be issued during set up, take down, or the event.
• Please be respectful of your fellow vendors and event attendees by moving vehicles and trailers promptly and being aware of limited space! To ensure safety, event officials reserve the right to ask you to move your vehicle or trailer at any time.
• Booths must be ready for sales 30 minutes before the start of the event. Event officials will be reviewing booth contents at that time.
