EXHIBITOR TOOL KIT
You should want to do your best, look your best and make the best sales!

Tent: the correct size for your booth, bowing legs do not work.  Branded tents are a plus.  White tents are highly recommended over any other color. Click here for custom tent suggestions.

Banners & Signs: banners should be in good quality, old banners should be retired.  Ideal banners are the same width as your tent and 8 - 10 foot tall.  Click here for my go-to banner maker.

Backdrops:  The most important part of your display, a professional backdrop adds a level of professionalism and trust to shopper's eyes.  Click here for my favorite backdrop printer.

Power/Electricity: being power independent is a great way to save money when you do multiple shows a year.  Click here for my blog post on good buys.

Reliable WIFI: pay-as-you-go wifi hotspots, or one with your regular service provider, are a great way to add reliability to your credit card reader.  Click here to see the one I use.

Fire Safety: it is required that you have a fire extinguisher in your booth at all markets.  It must be ABC rated, click here for an example.

Bugs/Pests: this is an outdoor event.  It is smart to have the following with you: sunblock, chapstick, mosquito spray and ant killer.

HOUSE KEEPING

Trash/dumpster usage: there is an on site dumpster for all Exhibitor trash and boxes.  Break down boxes before placing them in the dumpster.

Food Vendors: State of Texas law requires that grease and cooking oil be disposed of in an approved facility.  The dumpster is not approved.  You must take all oil and grease with you off site and dispose of it properly. 
 
SET UP SCHEDULE

We have found that there is a steady stream all day and not a "good time" or "bad time" to come.  The earlier you come the cooler it is.  Lunch time and after 6p tend to be the busiest.

Set Up Times: 

FRIDAY, MARCH 3: 10AM-8PM
SATURDAY, MARCH 4: 7AM-8:30AM

You are not allowed to drive vehicles onto the grass where the tents are located, so please make sure you bring a wagon/dolly to help unload your things. If you are unable to physically unload your products on your own, we recommend bringing help, as the ground is made of grass and dirt. 

Boutique Trucks:

FRIDAY, MARCH 3: 10AM-8PM
SATURDAY, MARCH 4: 7AM-8:30AM

Please note that the earlier you show up, the easier it is to park your trailers. 

 

All set up must be completed 30 minutes prior to the start of the market.

Saturday Move in Schedule:  there are no vehicles permitted in the festival grounds on Saturday.  Set up begins at 7am until 8:30am.  Saturday, you will have to carry/dolly/wagon your items into the market and the grounds are very large - it is a long haul.  We highly discourage anyone from setting up on Saturday morning, it is a long haul from the unload zone to your booth.

 

YOU MUST BE ON SITE DURING ALL MARKET HOURS.
Failure to be on site may result in you being ejected from the market, your booth will be taken down and removed from the event.

BREAKDOWN PROCESS

LOAD OUT OPTIONS:

Breakdown starts Saturday, March 4th at 5pm OR when customers leave the market - YES we have paying customers still shopping at closing.

  • At the close of business, break down your booth completely.
     
  • Ensure no trash is in your booth; this includes rubber bands, zip ties, plastic wrap, empty boxes, food trash and anything that you don't want to take home with you.
     
  • Dumpsters are provided to get rid of all trash.
     
  • When you are packed and ready to go, find an attendant - we will be wearing safety vests. 
     
  • The attendant will inspect your booth and if you are good-to-go you will be given a breakdown pass.
     
  • Once you have a breakdown pass you can begin to line your vehicle up on Pearland Pkwy to load out.

  • You will NOT be able to drive up to your booth for both load in or load out.

  • DO NOT BREAK DOWN EARLY.
Load Out: The theme of break down is GO WITH THE FLOW. 
All vendors load out in the following order:
  • Wagon/dolly out by walking
  • Vehicles only
  • Vehicles with trailers & Uhauls
NO vehicles are permitted on the market grounds. We will have Pearland police present to ensure that no vehicles enter the grounds to load up. Vehicles must line up on Pearland Parkway and wait for a Big Top employee to direct you to a spot on the road to park and dolly/wagon your items to your vehicle. Just pack up and relax, you will be out quickly, but come with realistic expectations.
