No booth fee refunds will ever be issued due to weather-related decisions made by the vendor. Unless the event is cancelled outright and in its entirety by the organizers, vendor participation is expected regardless of the weather. Swiss Bear always reserves the right to change the dates of MumFest due to circumstances outside of its control.
Application fees are always non-refundable.
All vendors must provide a Certificate of Insurance (COI) with general liability coverage of $1M per occurrence/$2M aggregate for the dates of the Festival. COI must list Swiss Bear, Inc. as an additional insured on the vendor’s policy. COIs may be submitted after acceptance and are not required at the time of application.
Cancellation Protection:
If you wish to purchase Cancellation Protection, please select this option in the pricing section.
If MumFest is canceled by the organizers in their sole discretion due to weather, hurricane, acts of God, or other unforeseen circumstances, this add-on benefit provides reimbursement for the cost of your booth only (based upon size). It does not cover any other losses, such as extras purchased or loss of sales. Cancellation Protection does not apply to application fees. Cancellation Protection pays only if the organizers cancel the event outright and in its entirety. Cancellation by a vendor does not entitle the vendor to receive Cancellation Protection even if the vendor has selected this option.
Cancellation Protection may not be added to your application after vendor approval.
Swiss Bear encourages vendors to purchase Cancellation Protection.
