FRIDAYThe 2nd annual FABULOSA Fest Artisan Crafts Fair will take place on a wonderful piece of property directly across the street from Dawn Ranch (the old Fife's Resort) on Saturday, July 18th from 11am to 8pm and Sunday, July 19th from 11am to 6pm. This is the same vast site that holds our Main Stage, BBQ, Short Film Fest and pool party. The property can accommodate over a thousand people easily and all of the festival attendees will have the opportunity to pass by your tent, table or booth.
Cost to Vend at Festival
The new lowered cost to rent space at the FABULOSA Fest Artisan Crafts Fair is $50 and $75 if you require power to be brought to your tent other than for lighting at night and includes both days! This price is regardless of what size tent you bring, although your tent cannot be larger than a 10X10.
Crafts Fair Set Up
Crafts Fair SET UP will take place on Friday, July 17th, from 11am to 4pm. If you cannot make this time, you must arrive to set up on Saturday, July 18th from 9am to 11am. The Craft Fair will begin at 11am on Saturday the 18th of July and go until 8pm. It begins again at 11am on Sunday the 19th and ends around 6pm.
Booth sizes are negotiable up to 10X10 (we prefer 10X10). We cannot accommodate any tent larger than that, and we do NOT provide tents. Venders are responsible for bringing their own tent and supplies. Please make sure your booth size will accommodate all of your stock, display materials, tables, chairs, etc. Everything must fit within the boundaries of the booth space you bring. We do not supply tables, chairs or supplies to put up your materials, so please make sure to bring everything you need to set up your booths.
You are allowed one helper to accompany you in your booth. Please make sure your application includes the name of your helper as you will need to be on our pass list to come and go from the festival. If you do not know who this will be yet, please email the name when you do know. Feel free to email judeae@gmail.com with any questions you might have during the application process.
We will have 24 hour onsite security from Friday through Sunday, however you should still take precautions to make sure your area is secure before leaving on Friday or Saturday.
Tear Down
Venders are required to complete booth teardown by 2pm on Monday July 20th so please plan accordingly. You will be allowed on the property from 10am until 2pm Monday.
We will email you with the schedule, directions, and map once we have accepted your application form and payment. If you need special arrangements that are not listed here or on the application, please just email us and we will do our best to accommodate you. We look forward to working with all of you and seeing your fabulous works soon!

PERMIT APPLICATION GUIDELINES AND INFORMATION 2009
There is certainly a very good opportunity for sales at this event, but this is not a typical crafts show or street fair. When submitting the application, please consider the environment of the Festival, which is for Women and their friends. So please plan accordingly in terms of what you bring to sell.
We would like to have all applications submitted and received by us no later than Wednesday, July 8th, 2009. There will be no guarantee you will have a space if submitted after that date (but you can certainly try!).
Booth Location
We will determine booth location assignments by size of booths/tents/product. Please keep in mind that the Craft Area Layout is subject to change. Vehicles cannot be driven directly to any booth, but we can get you pretty close.
Booth Sharing
You are welcome to share a booth with another business in order to share staffing, but it will not reduce your $50 rental fee per business/crafts person, and each vendor must submit their own application. This will be up to you to organize. There is a place on the application to say you are sharing a booth - please make sure you list the name of the other business you are sharing with if you have worked that out.
Craft Guidelines
1. No product of any kind bearing the name of FABULOSA Fest, using the Festival logo or likeness, or representing the festival in any way may be sold.
2. Permits are issued exclusively for the craft described and presented in the application.
3. No permits will be issued for selling food.
4. Booth space is not transferable: You may not sell or give your booth space to another crafts person or business. Subletting is not allowed.
5. Applications may be withdrawn at any point prior to notification of acceptance into the show. After acceptance, cancellations received by July 3rd, 2009 (postmark) will have 50% of the booth fee refunded. No refunds will be issued after this time. Festival ticket purchases are NOT refundable.
6. All payments should be made out to Dawn Huston and mailed to El Rio, Attn: FABULOSA FEST CRAFT FAIR, 3158 Mission St. SF CA 94110. We accept money orders, personal or business checks.
