Vendor Set-Up:
Spaces are available on a first-come, first-served basis. As you arrive on Main, move and set up as far north up the street as possible. These spots are high-traffic areas near the food and concert activities, and filling this space before the south end of the street will improve the flow of arriving vendors. Vendors should set up along the center of the street instead of along the sidewalk. There will be volunteers on hand to help you find a spot and set-up.
