  • Pop Up in the Pines does not charge a fee to apply.

  • Yes, each market has a vendor fee which covers your booth space and marketing exposure.

  • Vendors are responsible for bringing their own setup (tables, chairs, tents, displays). We do not offer electricity hook ups. If you need to bring a generator, please note that in your application.
    Here are some recommendations for various things that can be helpful at a pop up market.

  • No. Our markets are held rain or shine. If the weather is truly life threatening, we will do our best to offer a rain date. In the event that is impossible, we will offer a 50% discount on a future (same priced or lower) market, but cannot guarantee acceptance into any particular market (although we will do our best to accommodate).

Applications

We use Eventeny for all of our applications (vendors and food), approvals, maps, messaging and updates. Events are organized in series, based on location and timing.
We will never request payment using any other method, especially via Facebook or Instagram.
