GENERAL INFO
Checking In & Unloading: Vendors will not be able to drive-up to their booth locations (so please be prepared with your own cart). You may park in the upper parking lot and unload your car. There is a ramp and also stairs to use to unload/load.

Parking during the event:Once you have unloaded, we ask that you park your car and move to the parking lot across the road at Walgreens. Cars must be moved from the upper parking lot by 9.30am. This upper parking lot is best used for guests attending the market.

Equipment: We do not provide any tables, chairs, or tents for this event. There is no power provided. Please be sure to bring your own portable power source if you need one (example here).

​There are no walls/partitions between the booths.

Lighting - yes we will have extra lighting in the parking lot (globe lights and decorations will be hung down each aisle). We will also get some extra lights from Aurora Rents to have on hand.

Heating - we will have two large diesel heaters that will sit outside the parking lot and have vents blowing air into the parking garage. We still encourage you to bring extra layers to keep warm.

​Dimensions: The covered parking lot is 9 feet high. There are beams that run along the width of the parking lot and these are 7 feet high (no stands will be under this area).

Booth Location: Booth locations will be sent out 2 weeks prior to the event.

Amenities: We have a vendor breakout room inside the City of Shoreline with basic amenities (coffee/water). Restrooms can be found inside the City of Shoreline.

Food options: The food trucks are there throughout the market, and there is also a Trader Joe’s across the street.

Water: Although we normally provide water refills to cut down on plastic bottles, we will not be able to provide that this year to cut down on interactions.
