Vendor Application for Uni Place 2026 Makers Markets

Applications for the 2026 markers market season are officially open!

Vendors may apply for specific market dates, or ALL market dates and qualify for a season discount!

Uni Place Creative District will be hosting a Makers Market on the 3rd Friday* of each month starting in May and running through October of 2026. This district-wide event will be public and include booths, live music, food trucks and more! (*See dates below for the specific Friday of each month.)

Different from previous years, for this year these are evening/night markets, which will light up the district and provide for a comfortable evening activity!

Open to the public times are from 6pm-10pm, with vendor setup starting as early as 4pm and cleanup completed by 11pm. Overhead area lighting will be provided in the middle of the street(s), as well as street lighting and storefront lights. Vendors are encouraged to provide lighting within their own booth as well, especially if you will be utilizing tents for displays and signage. We will send out further recommendations about booth lighting for nighttime markets!

General Vendor Information:

This form is for people and organizations who are interested in having a 10' x 10' "booth" space at one or more of the upcoming markets. A vendor fee of $50 is required per market to reserve a space.

Interested in being a season vendor? If you want to be involved in each market, and you reserve/pay up front, you receive two extra goodies! First, you will receive complimentary social media marketing from our social pages as a season vendor! Second, if you sign up for the whole season - you get 10% off! :)

Businesses that are located in the Uni Place Creative District may reserve their space for free! If you are a resident in the Uni Place Creative District area and have a business license for a home-based business, you may also reserve your space for free!

Unfortunately, electricity is not available at any booth site currently. (We are working on this with the city for next year!!!) We suggest backup batteries and battery packs for additional lighting. Note that there are two businesses within the Uni Place Creative District that offer/rent indoor/outdoor booth space with access to electricity. This is coordinated/paid directly through them and are not officially part of the Uni Place Creative District Makers Market review process.

Payment Info:

Payment will be collected through Venmo/PayPal link at time of confirmation. Please note, there is a different Venmo link than last season - so please pay the new Venmo account! :)

Payment is required 7 days prior to the event in order to have a reserved booth with a carefully selected placement away from other booths of your type. If you pay within the seven days, you will receive a booth placement from those that are available and we cannot guarantee placement away from similar vendors.

Note: this fee is to hold the booth space only. We cannot and do not provide any equipment for any vendors. Vendors must bring their own tables/chairs/tent, etc.

Vendor fee is non-refundable, so before you commit - make certain you are able to attend.

Selection Process:

This is a juried market. Event hosts will have final determination on booth assignments. Application does not guarantee selection.

Vendors may be asked to submit photos of their booth setup or product selection for review over email prior to the market. The more detailed you can be on your description of what you provide, the better we are able to assign booth placements. If you offer several categories of products, and you only list one, we would not know not to place you near similar booths from those other categories.

Vendors who are selected to participate will be contacted at least 14 days prior to scheduled event. If you are approved for one market, then you are approved for the rest of the markets unless you are adding/removing categories of products/services from your selection.
