Vendor applications are open from Thursday, April 20th at 6pm through Saturday, May 13 at midnight. Due to the expected influx of applications along with the shortened timeframe on our end - applications will begin being responded to as soon as Monday, April 24th. This also helps spread out the response load over 3-4 weeks. However, some applications may take until after May 13th to be responded to. A late response is not always equal to a denial - just as some denials are sent out early. Sometimes if we have multiple vendors within your category, we like to wait to gauge what our available space looks like - especially with larger markets - to see if we can accept multiple vendors within the same niche. 

 

While applications are not first come first serve, we do appreciate applying as early as you are able. This helps me work through applications at a steady pace early on.

 

Vendor Applications are reviewed and chosen based on many factors, including but not limited to: 

 

☾ PAST VENDING EXPERIENCE WITH RITUAL MARKET + OTHER EVENTS

☾ UNIQUENESS OF PRODUCTS OFFERED - WE DO OUR BEST TO AVOID TOO MANY VENDORS WITHIN THE SAME NICHE

☾ HOW WELL YOUR BUSINESS' BOOTH FITS WITH THE MARKET'S THEME

☾ YOU HAVE AN ESTABLISHED BUSINESS WITH A WEBSITE, SOCIAL MEDIA HANDLES, OR A CATALOG

 

 

 

We take time to carefully review each application we receive and are truly grateful for each and every inquiry. Our markets would not be what they are without our vendors. We will respond to every single applicant regardless of our decision. We recognize the way we run this market is different than other markets - and if you feel that it’s not a good fit for you, that’s okay! But please refrain from sending any negative responses to denial emails - that will result in a permanent ban from the markets. It cost nothing to be kind.

 

 

Please review all of the information provided on this page prior to submitting a vendor application.
