At the Minnesota Craft Collective we are committed to becoming the #1 Craft & Gift Show/Market promoter in Minnesota.

Setup Time
Vendors may access the event location no earlier than 2 hours prior to the event start time (unless otherwise specified) to set up their booth or table. If additional setup time is needed, vendors must obtain prior approval from the Minnesota Craft Collective by emailing mncraftcollective@gmail.com. Early setup is subject to availability and authorization.

Vendor Registration                                                                                                           All vendors must register at the Minnesota Craft Collective check-in table at the start of the show.  At registration you will be required to have your ST19 form handed in (unless you have sent in prior to the show).  At registration please have your $20 early pack-up deposit, which will be returned to vendors at the end of the show at the check-out table.  If you pack-up early you will NOT be returned your $20.

Permitted Goods and Services
Vendors are permitted to sell only the goods or services specified in the “I will be selling the following” section completed during booth registration/intake form. To add additional items, vendors must request and receive written approval from Minnesota Craft Collective by contacting mncraftcollective@gmail.com.

Booth Space
Vendor booth spaces are limited to the dimensions specified for the event. Booths must be kept clean, orderly, and within the designated boundaries to comply with fire codes, respect neighboring vendors, and maintain adequate customer flow.

Noise and Scent Management
Loud music, noise, or sound amplification devices are not permitted. Vendors selling scent-based products are limited to one active scent at a time to accommodate individuals sensitive to strong smells.

Event Breakdown
Vendors will have up to 90 minutes (unless otherwise noted) after the event ends to pack up and remove all items.

Early teardown is prohibited.  You will lose your $20 deposit and will be subject to a $100 fine, which must be paid before the vendor is permitted to participate in future events (regardless if you have paid for future events or not). If you must leave the venue during the event, you will not be allowed to remove your items. Instead, you must cover your space and return at the conclusion of the event to retrieve your items. Vendors are also responsible for cleaning their booth area and removing all trash and debris.

Professional Conduct
Vendors must be courteous and respectful to all attendees, vendors, and staff. Failure to comply may result in immediate removal from the event without a refund.
