FNM 2026 - Artisan/Craft Vendor (BOOTH)

PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE APPLICATION PRIOR TO SUBMITTING!

 Eureka Friday Night Market is the premier summer festival, drawing up to 7,000 attendees each week to explore a vibrant mix of artisan vendors in Old Town. With high foot traffic and an energetic atmosphere, it’s a prime opportunity to showcase and sell your work!!

Due to high demand for booth spaces, we curate vendor selections to ensure a diverse and balanced marketplace. Submitting an application does not guarantee placement.

The Eureka Friday Night Market prioritizes local artisans, requiring all products to be handmade, crafted, or produced in Humboldt County. Vendors outside the area may be considered if they have a strong local connection. All items must be original and handmade by the vendor or their immediate team—mass-produced goods and resale items are not allowed. Additionally, direct sales and multi-level marketing businesses are not eligible to participate.

Vendors must comply with all required permits and regulations and are responsible for maintaining professional, well-presented booths. A pack-in, pack-out policy is enforced, meaning vendors must take their trash with them. All participants must uphold the values of diversity, inclusivity, and community spirit.

Any packaged food/CFO vendors must have the appropriate permits. All food prep must occur in a licensed commercial kitchen or a permitted/registered Cottage Food Operation (CFO) home kitchen.  It is not lawful to prepare food in an un-permitted/non-commercial kitchen that you will be bringing to the event.  A DHHS inspector will be on site during each event, and if you are not in compliance you will be asked to shut down your operation and suspend sales (we do not process refunds in this scenario).

 How the Application & Registration Payment Process Works:
 
1)  Submit Application You'll be asked to add a method of payment, you will NOT be charged until your application is approved.
2) If your Application is approved, your card on file will automatically be charged. 
3)  Only when your payment has posted is your space considered reserved.
4)  Refunds will only be given under special circumstances. Please note that while we do our best to accommodate folks, not all special requests can or will be honored. Not being satisfied with your booth placement is NOT something we will issue refunds for.

Booth Sharing: Applications are for a full month at a time—no single-night spots. If a full month feels like too much, consider sharing a booth with another vendor and alternating nights! Just make sure BOTH vendors apply separately and note the name of the business you will share a booth with in the special requests section--That part is very important!! While each person will have to enter their credit card, only ONE card will be charged if you are accepted.Each 10x10 booth may be shared by a maximum of two vendors.
