Market Facts:
This is an indoor market. You will need to provide your own tables, product displays, chairs or anything else that you may need. You must keep your belongings inside the booth space provided. Load in begins at 8am, the event is from 10am until 3pm, and we are loaded out by 5pm. There is an elevator available for load in/out, and stairs. Most people will need to use the elevator so have patience, come early, and be courteous.
Business License:
While we do not check for business licenses. However, if you’re collecting sales and doing business, best practice is to have a WA State Business License.
Business Insurance:
While we do not check for insurance, best practices for small businesses would be to have some sort of coverage for extraneous circumstances should anything happen to your product on site.
Each event hosted by Mercer Island Chamber is covered under general liability insurance up to $1,000,000 as required by most venues and cities. This is to cover the event as a whole and may not cover your individual business should something major happen.
What We Look For:
We prioritize unique, memorable products and brands that show a distinct perspective and iconic products.
If you make lots of different types of products, make sure they feel cohesive and recognizable as YOU. YOUR brand. YOUR designs - not something copied or inspired by other artists or generic designs on Canva or Pinterest or something.
Application Product Photos:
The photos submitted in your application will likely be used for marketing purposes. They should be a clear reflection of your brand and product to truly showcase your product well. Images should be square formatted (1:1), be well lit, and clear what your product is.
Application Deadline: Applications close September 26th, 2025, or when we reach vendor capacity.
Booth Fee:
Booth fees will be invoiced once you've been accepted to the event and are due upon receipt and are non-refundable. Fees must be paid before the event, or you may not be allowed at the event.
Contact Info: If you have any questions prior to submitting your application, email events@mercerislandchamber.com.
