Questions
Frequently asked.
For visitors
Coming to the market
The quick answers before your first Saturday.
Is it really free?
Yes. No ticket, no admission, no parking fee. Come as you are and bring the whole family.
Do I have to be religious to come?
Not at all. Everyone is welcome. It's a Jesus-centered market, but there's no pressure and no test at the door. Just good people, local makers, live music, and open prayer if you want it.
When and where is the next market?
Every other month at CBC West (Community Bible Church West) in San Antonio. Check the Next Market page for the next date and time.
Can I bring my kids?
Please do. It's built to be a family day: strollers welcome, room to roam, and things for kids to enjoy.
Is there food?
Yes. Local food and coffee vendors are part of every market. Come hungry.
For vendors
Selling at the market
Everything a maker asks before applying.
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 applications and get back to you.
How much is a booth?
A single booth is $50, a double booth is $100, and a food truck is $100. A food or drink booth is $50, 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.
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 the campus outside market hours?
The CBC West campus 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.
