🏁 Sold Out Early? Here is Our Tear-Down Policy!
We love seeing our vendors succeed! However, even if your tables are empty before the day is done, there are a few things to keep in mind regarding our event wrap-up.

Stay for the Full Experience
To maintain a professional and vibrant atmosphere for all our guests, vendors are expected to stay until the official close of the event (typically 5:00 PM). This ensures that late-afternoon attendees still get to experience the full layout of the market.

If You Sell Out:

📰Post a Sign: We encourage you to leave your booth set up and display a "Sold Out" sign.
📱 Leave Your Info: Make sure your contact information or social media handles are visible so customers can find you later!
🌿 Enjoy the Day: Once your work is done, take the opportunity to network with fellow vendors or enjoy the rest of the event activities.

A Community Standard
Staying until the end supports your neighboring vendors and keeps the energy high for everyone involved. We appreciate your cooperation in making every event a success from start to finish!

⏰ Mark Your Calendars: Vendor Load-In & Setup Times
We want your event morning to be as stress-free as possible! To help you plan your arrival and setup, here are the details for vendor check-in:

Event Day Schedule

Gates Open: 7:00 AM for all vendors and staff.

Ready to Ride: We ask that all vendors are fully set up and ready to greet our guests before the official event start time.

Need More Time?
We offer early setup on the Friday before the event for those who want to beat the morning rush. Take your time getting your display just right!

A Note on Security 🛡️
While you are welcome to set up your tent and heavy displays early, please do not leave any product or valuables unattended overnight. The Guild does not provide overnight security, so please keep your merchandise safe by bringing it with you and loading it in on event morning.

🔌 Powering Your Booth: What Vendors Need to Know!
Planning your setup for our upcoming event? We’ve had a few questions regarding power access, and we want to make sure you have everything you need to succeed.

The Current Setup
To stay true to our roots and the unique atmosphere of our venue, on-site electricity is currently not available for individual vendor spaces. All vendors must be fully self-contained.

Power Solutions We Support:

☀️ Solar Panels: We highly encourage the use of solar! It aligns perfectly with our philosophy of self-reliance and sustainability.

🤫 Quiet Generators: If you need to run credit card readers or small displays, quiet-run generators are permitted. We just ask that they don’t disrupt the experience for your neighbors or our guests.

Stay Prepared
Whether you’re using a mobile POS system or lighting up a display, please plan your power needs in advance to ensure a smooth weekend in the Hill Country!

🎪 Setting Up Your Space: Tents, Weights, and Hill Country Ground
Getting ready for market day? We’ve received several questions about equipment rentals, and we want to help you prepare for the unique terrain of our venue.

The Essentials
At this time, the Guild does not provide rentals for event equipment. All vendors are responsible for providing their own professional setup, including:

* Professional pop-up tents (10' x 10')
* Tables and display units
* Chairs

A Note on Safety & Texas Winds 🌬️
If you’ve spent time in the Hill Country, you know the winds can be unpredictable! To keep everyone safe, all tents must be properly weighted. Important Ground Tip: We are located on a beautiful site with hard caliche rock just 2 inches below the surface. This means traditional tent stakes will not work. Please plan to bring heavy weights (sandbags, water jugs, or concrete weights) to secure your canopy effectively.
