Why sell here

The crowd every maker wants.

Foot traffic and fit, the two things vendors choose a market for. We have both.

1,000+ guests at market one

Our first market drew over 1,000 people in one afternoon. Free admission means real, genuine family turnout — not curiosity traffic.

150 booths, and we pick the lineup

Anyone can apply. There is no limit on applications. We choose 150 vendors for each market, so tell us clearly what you sell.

We promote you, too

Every market gets announced to our email list and social channels before doors open. Every accepted vendor gets featured in the run-up to market day.

No fee to apply

No application fee and no minimum sales history. If your products fit a faith-aligned family market, apply. It takes under 3 minutes.

Fill out the form

Tell us about your business and what you'll sell.

We review after the window closes

We pray over every application and review them one at a time. We do not start until applications close, so you will not hear back before then. Please don't worry if it's quiet until then.

You will hear from us

Once we start reviewing, we reach out. You will get a phone call, a text message, and an email from us. All three, every time.

Pay within 3 days

Once you are approved, we send you a payment link. You have 3 days to pay. We get far more applicants than we have booths, so we lock in each spot fast.

Read this first

Vendor policies.

A few things to know before you apply. The first three carry real consequences — please read them properly.

Strictly enforced

No refunds. Ever.

Booth fees are non-refundable for any reason — including weather, illness, and schedule changes. We set up rain or shine. If you can't make it and it's within 3 days of the market, it's on you to find a replacement vendor and let us know who they are.

Strictly enforced

Stay until the market is officially closed. We're strict about this.

The market is scheduled to run until 2pm, but it is over when we say it is over, not when the clock says so — closing times vary. You may not pack up, tear down, or load out until the market is officially closed. Half-empty rows in the last hour make the whole market look closed and cost every vendor still selling. The only exception is a genuine emergency AND clearance from the event coordinator before you leave. Leaving early without that counts as a strike, exactly like a late cancellation: the first one costs you the next market, and 3 means you'll be banned from future markets.

Strictly enforced

Cancel inside 3 days, sit out the next market

Cancelling within 3 days of market day means you won't be able to vend at the next one. Do it 3 times and you'll be banned from future markets. This isn't about the money — it's that a booth we can't refill leaves a hole in the row and a customer walking past nothing. Tell us early and we can fill it. A genuine emergency is always the exception; just reach out.

No electricity provided

This is an outdoor market and we don't provide power. If you need electricity, plan to bring your own quiet generator.

Venue access

The market site is closed outside market hours. Access is limited to approved vendors and staff during setup and teardown.

Food & beverage permits

Selling food or drinks? You'll need a permit. If you already hold a 2-year San Antonio food permit, just show it. If not, tell us on your application and we'll get you a single-event permit for $60. Let us know too if you'll use open flame, propane, or a generator. Full details below.

Weather

We set up rain or shine and don't cancel the market for rain. You're welcome to join us, but booth fees are non-refundable, including for weather.

Help promote the market

When you share the market, customers know where to find you and the whole event wins. Please share our Instagram and Facebook event invites with your people before market day.

3 days to pay

Once you're approved, you have 3 days to use your payment link. We get far more applicants than we have booths, so we lock in each spot fast. If the 3 days pass, we offer the booth to someone else.

How we'll reach you

Once you're accepted, our main way to reach you is an Instagram vendor group chat we open about two weeks before the event. We don't do group texts. We'll also send a few emails, so make sure you can be reached on Instagram.

Food vendors

Selling food? Here's the permit part.

San Antonio requires a food permit to sell food at an event. Here's what you need to know, in plain English.

Do you need one?

Yes, if you sell food or drinks that must be kept hot or cold (cooked or prepared food, fresh drinks). You may not need one if you only sell sealed, shelf-stable packaged items.

Already have a permit?

If you hold a current 2-year San Antonio food permit, you're set. Just show it on your application. No extra charge from us.

Need one? We've got you.

No permit? Pick "Food / drink booth, I need a permit" on your application. We'll get you a single-event permit for $60, added to your booth price. That covers the city permit and the paperwork, so you can just show up and sell.

The 14-day rule (read this)

If you need a permit, you have until 14 days before the market to get your own. Miss that window and our team gets it for you. Either way, if you need a permit and it isn't sorted, you can't set up the day of the market. No exceptions, so don't wait.

Day-of basics the city expects

Keep hot food hot and cold food cold. Have a handwashing setup. Keep your space clean and your food covered. A sanitarian may stop by to check.

Using fire or power?

Tell us in advance if you'll cook with open flame or propane, or run a generator, so we can place you safely.

Vendor questions

Before you apply

How do I become a vendor?
Apply on our Apply to Vend page. Tell us about your business and what you'll sell. We review every application one at a time, but we do not start until applications close, so you will not hear back before then. Once we start reviewing, you will get a phone call, a text message, and an email from us. If you are approved, you have 3 days to use your payment link.
How much is a booth?
A single booth is $55, a double booth is $100, and a food truck is $100. A food or drink booth is $55, plus $60 if you need us to get you a single-event food permit. All fees are non-refundable. Approved vendors get a payment link after we review your application.
Are booth fees refundable?
No. This is a no-refund event. Booth fees are non-refundable for any reason, including weather. We set up rain or shine. If you can't make it and it's within 3 days of the market, you need to find a replacement vendor and tell us who they are.
What happens if I cancel late?
Cancelling within 3 days of market day means you won't be able to vend at the next market, and 3 late cancellations means you're banned from future markets. Booth fees aren't refunded either way, and inside that window it's on you to find a replacement vendor. Tell us as early as you can and we can usually fill the spot ourselves. A genuine emergency is always the exception — just reach out.
Can I pack up early?
No, and we're strict about it. The market is scheduled until 2pm, but closing times vary — wait until we announce the market is officially closed before you start loading out. Half-empty rows in the last hour make the market look closed and cost everyone still selling. The only exception is a genuine emergency AND clearance from the event coordinator before you leave. Leaving early without that counts as a strike the same way a late cancellation does: the first costs you the next market, and 3 means you're banned from future markets.
Is electricity provided?
No. This is an outdoor market and we don't provide power. If you need electricity, plan to bring your own quiet generator.
I sell food or drinks. Do I need a permit?
Yes. Food and beverage vendors need a current food permit. If you don't have one, say so on your application and we can arrange a single-day permit for you for an added fee. Tell us too if you'll use open flame, propane, or a generator.
Can I get on site outside market hours?
The market site is closed outside market hours. Access is limited to approved vendors and staff during setup and teardown.
Do I have to be a Christian business to sell?
We're a Jesus-centered market and ask that products fit a family-friendly, faith-aligned environment. The vendor agreement covers the details. It's about the products, not a statement of faith.
What kinds of vendors do you accept?
Handmade and artisan goods, food and beverage, apparel, home goods and candles, kids and family, and faith and ministry. If you're not sure you fit, apply and ask.
