Vendors must stay with their food truck, cart or other setup and may NOT approach event attendees outside the designated area assigned to that vendor.
Rates
The River Market does not require vendors to pay a percentage of gross sales back to the venue, but we do charge rent to set up. Rental rates vary by event. Vendors will be notified of rental rates for each event at which they are approved to set up.
Rent is due each day vendors set up. We cannot bill for rental invoices. Checks may be made payable to The River Market.
Set Up / Tear Down
Set Up and Tear Down times will be determined by River Market Management and communicated to vendors prior to the event.
Vendors are not allowed to enter the designated vendor area for set up prior to the stated set up time and are required to stay in their assigned location until the stated tear down time.
