NB: By signing the 2011 Makers Market Stall holder Contract, you agree to the following rules:

STALL SIZES & EQUIPMENT

  • Indoor and permanent (regular) outdoor stalls will be allocated to stallholders by the Organisers before the event ONLY once payment has been received. Stalls may not set up without being allocated by the Organisers first. Stalls must fit into the space allocated and paid for. Extra space can only be used with permission from the Organisers and if paid for.
  • Unless a table is organised and paid for in advance from the organisers (subject to availability), each stall must bring their own table, and may use ONLY 2 chairs.
  • Outdoor stallholders not allocated space below the venue’s sheltered areas must provide their own shade/shelter such as an umbrella. In the event of bad weather, it may be possible to accommodate a limited number of stalls indoors. These will be allocated at the Organisers’ discretion.
  • There is electricity available (see price list) but traders must bring their own 20m extension cords and multi-plugs. If a trader’s equipment uses a lot of electricity, or in an unsafe manner or causes the electricity to trip, the Organisers reserve the right to stop their use of the venue’s electricity.

SET UP AND PACK UP TIMES

  • Stallholders must set up NOT EARLIER than 08h00 (except with permission) but NOT LATER than 09h00.
  • For the Makers Market: Gates close at 09h15 sharp for offloading in the morning, and only open at 16h00 for packing up. Departure MAY NOT BE EARLIER than 16h00, regardless of whether a trader has depleted their stock they may not depart early unless by prior arrangement with the Organisers.
  • Cars will be checked and drivers fined or banned from the venue in future if found in non-parking areas at the venue at times other than the above. Stalls may not set up earlier than these times unless by prior arrangement with Organisers.

NB: STALLHOLDERS ARRIVING AFTER 09H15 TO SET UP, AND ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO DO NOT NOTIFY US BEFORE 09H15 (VIA CELL OR SMS) THAT THEY WILL BE LATE, RISK LOSING THEIR STALLS AND/OR NOT BEING ALLOWED TO SET UP AT ALL, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THEY HAVE PAID IN ADVANCE OR NOT.

PARKING

  • Cars must be removed from the venue as quickly as possible after being unpacked, and then parked outside the venue, preferably as far from the venue as possible to allow visitors to park nearby. The Makers Market employs staff to guard cars on the premises.
  • The Fair’s casual staff can assist traders with off/loading of vehicles, but only if their duties for the Fair are fulfilled first.

FOOD STALLS

  • Stallholders must clean up after themselves. Food stalls must provide their own bins. Eco-friendly packaging must be used as far as possible in keeping with sustainable principles.
  • Stalls using gas and hot appliances and/or hot liquids (e.g. oil, water) must bring their own fire blankets and fire extinguishers. Both gas canisters and fire extinguishers must be in good working order and recently serviced. All spare gas canisters must be stored in a specially allocated area away from the main event area. Gas can only be used outside – it may not be used inside the venue’s buildings.
  • Food traders are required to have the relevant documents required by Council (e.g. food trading permit). They must arrange these at their own expense and have them available for inspection at the event attended.

PAYMENTS & TURNOVER DECLARATION

  • Indoor and regular outdoor stalls must be pre-paid. No payment, no stall. Prices and payment terms are non-negotiable.
  • Prices are determined at the Makers Market Organisers’ discretion. All stall prices are subject to change for future events.
  • Stallholders may be required to declare their income and turnover to the Organisers, who undertake to keep the information anonymous and confidential.

FEE FORFEITS & REFUNDS

  • Stalls that have paid for but do not attend the event for which they have paid will forfeit their entire stall fee.
  • If for some reason you cannot come to the event please communicate with us in a timely manner so we can make alternative arrangements for your space.
  • In the event of bad weather, stalls choosing not to attend will forfeit a percentage of their fee (30%), unless the event is cancelled altogether by organisers, in which case refunds may be considered at the Organisers’ discretion.

LIABILITY & RESTRICTIONS

  • Stallholders are liable for any damage/loss they cause at the venue or to its property. The Organisers cannot be held liable for any damage, loss or injury suffered by any stallholders or their acquaintances.
  • Stallholders MAY NOT STICK ANY ADVERTISING MATERIAL (eg POSTERS) ON THE PAINT/PLASTER/WALLS OF THE VENUE. Please use the Blackboard special advertising spaces provided. Failure to comply with this rule and any damage caused to the paint/plaster of the building by sticking advertising material to these surfaces will be for the stallholders account.
  • The Organisers reserve the right to request that any trader cease trading activities on the day and leave the event if they do not comply with the rules laid out herein or with instructions given.
  • No smallholder or their acquaintances may distribute information or canvas stallholders/visitors, or offer a service/product without Organiser approval. Doing so may result in stall holder being banned from the event.
  • Each stall holder must supply a detailed description of what happens on or what is sold at their stall, and must inform the Organisers of any new or different products or services that they intend adding to their stalls after initial stall approval, and before the event. Permission for the additions not guaranteed.
