Vendor Application - Sept. 17

The event is hosted by Historic Downtown Gallatin, Inc., an accredited State and National Main Street Program. This market serves our mission and foster economic vitality for local businesses and visiting vendors while creating community events that enrich and preserve the historic charm and enduring spirit of our downtown.

We are looking for a very limited number of arts & crafts vendors, specifically selling items that will align with our music festival. Our setup window is extremely limited, so vendors must be able to set up quickly. 

General Information

This is a curated event with a very limited number of booth spaces. Each booth will be 10x20. You will not be charged for your booth space until you have been accepted into the market.

The following information is provided for vendors to submit applications for the market. If your application is accepted, the application and the terms set forth will constitute a binding legal contract between the vendor and Historic Downtown Gallatin.

In consideration of vendors who have purchased items for resale, you cannot give away items without permission.

In consideration of vendors:

• Tables are to be skirted for the appearance of the event. Tables, chairs, tents and extension cords are the vendors’ responsibility.

• All booth spaces are 10x20 feet.

• Due to the quick set up time, tents are optional.

Festival date and time

Third Thursday on Main will take place in Downtown Gallatin from 6:30-9 p.m. on Thursday, June 18, July 16, Aug. 20 and Sept. 17.  This is a rain-or-shine event. Vendor fees are non-refundable under any circumstances.

Important dates and times

• Vendors can set up their booths between 5 p.m. and 6 p.m.. Vehicles must be off the square by 6 p.m. This has become a safety issue with the community coming downtown earlier. This will be strictly enforced.

• Vendors will be allowed back on the square to load up their booths at 9 p.m. All vendors must have their booths off the street and the area cleaned up by 9:30 p.m. This has become an issue with the police department as well us, as we are only allowed to close a state highway for a designated period. Please adjust your sale time/cleanup time accordingly.

• A map with booth placements will go out approximately one week before the vent.

Rules and Regulations

• No vendor can purchase more than one booth.

• Information-only booths are not permitted.

• No soliciting.
