CRAFT CULTURE ETIQUETTE – THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE YOU APPLY:

– Do your research. Please make sure these markets are suitable for your brand, budget, and schedule before you apply.
– Read the Exhibitor Manual . It has a lot of important information! If you still have questions, please email info@culture.ca. Please ask questions BEFORE you apply, not after you have been accepted.
– when you apply for a market, we assume you want to attend! Please do not waste our time and take away a spot from another vendor by not communicating with us. We work with over 400 vendors a year and it is a lot to manage.
– want to withdraw your application? You can log into the vendor portal at any time and withdraw your application. If you have already been accepted, let us know right away at info@craftculture.ca
– Vendors must have a back up plan in case you become sick cannot attend the event last minute. We can not issue last minute refunds so PLEASE make sure you have a friend or family member lined up to cover you if needed.
– Please check your junk folder! If you have not worked with us before, our first emails often end up in the junk folder. Please add info@craftculture.ca and noreply@conventionforce.com to your safe list.
– Craft Culture Markets are vibrant, uplifting events that prioritize positivity. We put an emphasis on creating and maintaining an atmosphere of respect and inclusivity—any attempts at negativity, gossip, or bullying will not be tolerated.

NOTES:

- Vendors will not be given a booth size upon acceptance. Once accepted, vendors must log in and reserve whichever booth size they prefer. Sizes are available first come first serve. A 50% payment will be due immediately, and the remaining is due Sept 1st.  Show management will assign booth placement once everyone is paid.
