Essential Vendor Information
Booths:
Vendors may make use of a 7’x10’ section of the 21’x10’ white tents provided by the Festival, or may bring their own (up to) 10’x10’ tent. Please bring your own tables, chairs, extension cords, lights, and anything else needed to provide your service. There are a limited number of side-walls for the provided tents, and these are supplied on a first-come, first-served basis. The weather is unpredictable, so please bring tarps to help keep your booth dry, and secure after hours.
Power & Water:
The Fairgrounds has limited 15-amp power stations available for Vendors. The cost is $25 to have access to one 15-amp outlet. There are are less outlets than vendor tents, so priority will be given to food vendors that depend on it. Generators are NOT permitted on site. Propane or other quiet alternative power sources may be permitted at the discretion of the Vendor Coordinator. Both hot & cold potable water are available, as well as a limited supply of non-potable ice.
Fees:
A single booth space is $150 for all vendor types, and includes 2 Adult Festival Passes. Spaces are a maximum of 10’ x 10’, or if using our tents they are 7’x10’
A double booth space is $300 for all vendor types, and includes 4 Adult Festival Passes
NEW FOR 2025: Artisan market! There will be a handful of tables available in a larger open tent (21’x10’) for local Haida Gwaii artisans (no food). The cost of a table will be $100 for Friday, Saturday or Sunday and includes your festival pass. If you are wanting to vend in the market for multiple days, it’s $25 per additional day. Lighting will be provided.
Add $25 for access to one 15-amp outlet.
Vendors will be required to submit names ahead of time for the festival passes included in their vendor fee.
All fees are subject to 5% GST
**Your Vendor Registration will be processed during the payment process. Fees are 100% refundable up to 30 days before the Festival, and 50% refundable 10-30 days before. Fees are non-refundable if vendors cancel within 10 days of the festival unless for emergency reasons.**
Setup times & vehicle access:
Setup times are Friday 10:00 am – 3:00 pm, and Saturday 7:00 am – 10:00 am. No vehicle access will be allowed after 2pm Friday afternoon, after 9am Saturday morning, or on Sunday before the performances end. This will be strictly enforced out of respect for performers.
Food vendor license requirements:
Northern Health Authority requires that food vendors obtain a temporary food permit to sell food that is not prepackaged and that must be prepared. Northern Health charges a $50 fee to process the application. However, the fee will be waived if the application is received and accepted by Northern Health more than 14 calendar days before the event.
Since 2006, food vendors are required to have at least one person with their FOODSAFE Level 1 to sell prepared food that is not prepackaged.
