How to be a Vendor for 2024
Follow these 3 easy steps to get involved and become a Vendor.
Step 1
Review the Vendor General Information and the Rules and Regulations in the tabs below.
Insurance
Liability and loss of property insurance (minimum of $5 million) is required of all exhibitors and vendors. This may be personal, short-term or through a larger organization. There are no exceptions. Please read Rules and Regulations section 7.
We’ve again partnered with Duuo Insurance to offer Uxbridge Fall Fair vendors affordable short-term insurance coverage that meets our requirements. Get set-up in minutes and enjoy preferred partner pricing, insurance registration form. (It does take a bit of time for it to load). If there is a problem loading please use duuo.ca and look for Uxbridge Fall Fair. We are registered with them.
Space Information
Those vendors taking advantage of an outdoor space will need to provide their own tent fitting the space provided. This tent must be firmly secured in case of bad weather or winds. Most outdoor spaces offer an electrical outlet. Please be prepared to provide manual credit card payments as wireless usage is sporadic.
Gate Entry
Gate entry during the fair will be by wristband only. All accepted vendors will be issued 2 free vendor weekend wristbands. They are non-transferable so please purchase additional weekend wristbands for your volunteers and helpers at the reduced rate of $10.00 each in advance or they will be required to purchase the regular priced daily admission at the gate.
