HOW TO APPLY:

 **Regardless of whether you are a new or returning vendor, we ask that all interested vendors complete this application.

You will be able to apply for ALL 3 ST. PETE dates between April - May 2026 that you are available for below. Apply for one, two, or apply for them all! It is not necessary to apply for all to be selected, although you are absolutely welcome to! Please simply apply for all dates you are interested in vending. 

*Please note: If you apply on or after February 25th, you will automatically be added to the waitlist for the dates you applied for.    

WHEN WILL I KNOW THE STATUS OF MY APPLICATIONS?

• We curate multiple events simultaneously during each application period. Acceptance emails are sent on a rolling basis within the date ranges listed below. This approach allows us to communicate efficiently with selected vendors without notifying all accepted applicants at once, while also maintaining flexibility in finalizing waitlisted applicants. 

• ACCEPTANCE & WAITLIST EMAILS FOR APRIL - MAY 2026 DATES will be sent any time between January 28th - February 25th. Interested vendors who applied between January 27th - February 20th will know the status of all of their Winter/Spring 2026 (April - May) applications no later than February 25th. 

• If you are accepted for 1 or more dates, the payment due dates will be included in that email as well as instructions on how to pay. Please be sure to pay on time as we always have an extensive waitlist and any accepted vendor that does not pay on time will forfeit their spot and may not be considered for future markets. If you are able, we recommend paying as soon as you receive your acceptance email & invoice so you’re less likely to forget. 

• If you are not accepted, you will be automatically added to the waitlist for the month(s) you applied for & will get an email stating this by February 25th at the latest. If you do not receive any emails about the status of your application by February 25th, please check your spam folder and send us an email for clarification. 

• We will reach out to waitlist vendors via email in the event spots open up.

REMINDER TO ALL APPLICANTS:

**Please remember, Mezzo Market is not a first-come, first-served market. While we encourage interested vendors to apply promptly, early submission does not guarantee acceptance.

**Our team takes great care in thoughtfully curating each market to ensure a balanced and diverse vendor lineup. If you are not accepted, please know it is not a reflection of your business or your value—it’s simply part of maintaining the overall vision and experience of the event while working with strict space limitations.

Thank you so much, we truly appreciate your interest in vending with us!
