PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS UNLESS YOU HAVE RECEIVED AN EMAIL WITH THIS LINK TO PAY FOR YOUR SPACE

Get ready for an amazing market back at Scottsdale Civic Center! We have many exciting activities and experiences planned for our shoppers. Enjoy live music, beer gardens for adults, and endless fun for the entire family! We can't wait for you to join us for our festive 2 day market, the Merry Merchantile Market on Saturday, December 13 and Sunday, December 14, 2025!

Market hours are 10am to 5pm on Saturday, December 13 and 10am to 4pm on Sunday, December 14, 2025. Vendors are required to participate on both days of the market.

SPACES AVAILABLE

Beverage vendor spaces are limited. Spaces are first come, first serve. Your space is not guaranteed until payment is received. If spaces are filled, you may request to be added to our waitlist in case of cancellations. 

Beverage Vendors - $600 per 10’x10’ booth space for both days
Please ensure that your entire setup fits within the allotted 10’x10’ space. If you require additional room, you may purchase an extra 10’x10’ booth space. You may provide your own generator or pay an additional $50 for access to electricity; however, electrical access is limited. For safety and stability, all canopies must be securely weighted on all four legs. Spaces may be located on grass, gravel, or pavement and may have a slight incline. 

Important Notice:

• Fire Resistance Requirement: All vendor tents must have a fire-resistant label or certificate, as required by the Scottsdale Fire Department. Tents without proper documentation will be removed. CPAI-84 certified tents meet this requirement. By purchasing a vendor space, you agree to comply. Thank you for helping us keep the event safe.
• We are required to submit vendor permits to Maricopa County, and inspectors will be on-site during the event. Please ensure you have all necessary documentation and equipment to pass inspection. If you are cooking on-site, you must bring a fire extinguisher, as the Scottsdale Fire Department will also be conducting safety checks for fire code compliance.
• Please download and complete the 2025 Maricopa County Food Vendor Registration Form, available after payment, to register your business with the county. By purchasing a vendor space, you confirm that all required permits with the City of Scottsdale and Maricopa County have been obtained. Failure to comply may result in removal from the event without a refund. Once completed, please email the form to contact@merchantilemarket.com.
• The City of Scottsdale asks that all food & beverage vendors provide a COI that shows both Scottsdale Arts and The City of Scottsdale are listed as "additionally insured". Our team will follow up with you 1 month prior to the market with more details and the requirements.
• Overnight Booth Setup Guidelines: Weather permitting, vendors may leave their 10'x10 booths intact overnight from Saturday to Sunday at their own discretion. If doing so, tents must be fully enclosed with zippered or Velcro-attached sidewalls to cover and conceal all contents. Additionally, all tents must be securely weighted at all four corners.
• Security: All vendors are strongly encouraged to remove all valuables overnight — including but not limited to cash boxes, electronics, merchandise, and sensitive materials.
• EARLY DEPARTURE: Vendors who begin packing up or leaving before the official market close time will be subject to a $50 early breakdown fee. Early departure may affect your eligibility to participate in future markets.
• NO SHOW: Failure to notify us of your absence will result in a $50 no-show fee and may lead to removal from consideration for future markets.

NO REFUNDS/CREDITS/TRANFERS FOR ANY REASON - THIS IS A RAIN OR SHINE EVENT

NEXT STEPS:

1. Pay to reserve your space by purchasing a space on this listing. If you require electricity, please ensure to ADD BOTH "10'x10' Booth ONLY" AND "+$50 Add-On to Booth for Electricity" to cart when you checkout to purchase space. We cannot hold spaces. Spaces are NON-REFUNDABLE and NON-TRANSFERABLE regardless of the reason, sorry!

2. After your space has been purchased and payment has been successfully processed, you will receive a separate email containing downloadable materials, including event graphics and additional vendor information.
   UPDATE: We have updated the Vendor Agreement for 2025-2026 Market season, and all participating vendors will be required to review and submit a signed copy of the revised agreement. We will be sending the revised Vendor Agreement in a separate email shortly.

3. Be sure to add Scottsdale to your Arizona TPT license. If it’s not already listed, visit aztaxes.gov and complete the form under the “Businesses” section. Fees may apply, and your license should arrive within 5 business days. After the event, you must report and pay sales tax to the City of Scottsdale. For help, contact the Arizona Department of Revenue directly—we’re unable to assist with licensing. Learn more at azdor.gov.
