What is a Peddler Show?
Since 1977, The Peddler Show has delighted loyal shoppers with a one-of-a-kind shopping adventure! No two shows are ever the same—each weekend brings a fresh mix of talented artisans, crafters, jewelers, designers, boutiques, and unique vendors from across the country. Every visit offers exciting new finds while maintaining a unique marketplace for shoppers to experience!

Are deposits required?
Since Peddlers can reserve multiple shows without upfront booth fees, we require an annual deposit based on your highest booth fee. For example, a 10×10 booth requires a $395 deposit. This deposit holds all reservations for the year and can be applied to your final show balance, refunded, or rolled over for the next year—most Peddlers choose to roll it over. If payments are delinquent, late fees, cancellations, or no-shows occur, the deposit may be applied to your account.
-
When are booth fees due?
If you have a deposit on file, booth fees for individual shows are due in full 30 days prior to the show date. If you are participating in a single show and do not have a deposit on file, payment is due with contract. All payments must be made by credit card and vendors will not be allowed to set up without payment in full.
-
What is the cancellation policy?
Cancellations made in writing over 90 days before a show incur no fee. Within 90 days, a $100 fee applies per show. Cancellations within 30 days are charged full booth rent. Booth space changes must be submitted in writing. Medical cancellations due to emergencies require a doctor’s note for possible fee waivers at Management’s discretion.
-
What if you are placed on the waiting list?
If a show or your category is full, you'll be placed on a waitlist. If a spot opens, we may contact you, but you’re not obligated to accept. Openings can happen months or weeks before a show—participation is your choice.
-
How to add new items to the booth?
We understand products evolve, and changes within your approved line are welcome. However, new items require prior approval. To sell new products, submit photos and a description, including their booth percentage. Unapproved items may be removed by Management.
-
What are the booth requirements?
BACKDROPS: Booths must have 6 ft. tall backdrops on three sides to create a boutique-style setting. Backdrops should visually and physically separate your booth from others. Peddlers are responsible for their own setup—materials are not provided.
BOOTH SIGN: A clearly visible, attractive sign with your business name is required.
CORNERS: Corner placements are limited and not guaranteed. If assigned a corner, keep it open or display merchandise to attract customers from both aisles.
TABLES: Must be covered to the floor.
APPEARANCE: Keep booths neat—store back stock and personal items out of sight. A well-presented booth leads to better sales!
PROMPTNESS: Booths must be ready and staffed 30 minutes before opening. No early teardown—if you sell out, your booth stays open until Sunday closing.
Please review your contract for full booth requirements.
