VENDOR ESSENTIALS
VENDOR BADGES - Vendor Wristbands are to be picked up during load-in on Friday, July 10th at the Red Tent labeled "Check-In" and put on before entering the building.
How many you receive depends on the booth size purchased:
10'x10' = 3 Vendor Passes
10'x20' = 4 Vendor Passes
20'x20' = 5 Vendor Passes
*Do not give away or sell extra Vendor Wristbands to anyone who is not vending with you. If you are found to have done so, you will forfeit your booth without a refund and be asked to leave.
These cannot be used as access for early shopping on Friday during load-in for those not officially vending at the event.
VENDOR PACKETS - A more detailed Digital Vendor Packet with booth assignments, Show Guide and load-in instructions will be sent to your registered email and texted to your phone # on file at least one week prior to event day.
LOAD-IN/LOAD OUT - All vendors are permitted and strongly encouraged to load in the day before the event (Friday, July 10th). You will have an assigned time slot to do so.
- CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF 13 ARE NOT PERMITTED IN THE BUILDING OR ON THE LOADING DOCKS DURING VENDOR LOAD IN AND LOAD OUT.
TABLES/CHAIRS/EXTRA PASSES - You may order extra tables, chairs and Vendor Passes at any time — up to a week before event day. We will be sending out a text with the order form soon!
*Or simply reach out to vendors@thriftcon.co and let us know what'cha need!
CUSTOM VENDOR FLYERS - We will be sending you personalized marketing material for social media. Hold tight, they'll be in your texts/emails the week of 06/15 or earlier. Custom videos will follow shortly thereafter.

COMMUNICATION - We will be sending out a lot of information about the event over the next several weeks to your registered text and email. Please make sure both your carrier settings and email inbox is set up to receive those and that you are reading them before coming to the event.
If you have ever texted "STOP" to a ThriftCon text in the past, you will need to text "START" to +18775457979 to reinstate text messaging.
We cannot promise that any other form of communication, like Instagram DMs, will be responded to.
LOSS PREVENTION - We know, we hate it too. However, ThriftCon and venue security is not responsible for missing or stolen items from your booth. We do everything we can behind the scenes to ensure that it doesn't happen, but this is also a fast-paced retail environment with retail problems. Please keep yourself and your team up to date on successful customer service techniques to deter shoplifters in your booth and always, always USE YOUR VENDOR PASSES TO BRING EXTRA HELP.
BOOTH RULES
BULK/WHOLESALE SELLING - ThriftCon does not allow vendor booths to host "By the Pound" or "Fill-a-Bag" type activations without prior written approval. If you are planning on this type of sales strategy, please reach out to vendors@thriftcon.co first so that we can ensure it doesn't conflict with ongoing contracts we have with sponsors.
FOOD & DRINK - Concessions will be available at the venue on Saturday and Sunday. But we strongly suggest you pack something on your own as large crowds often make it difficult to dip out and wait in long food/drink lines.
Per venue contracts, no food or drink can be sold at Vendor booths. This includes exotic snacks. No outside alcohol. Ever. Never.
REFUNDS - Booth fees for this event are non-refundable after June 22nd, 2026. Booths are also non-transferrable and cannot be sold/given away to someone else. If you cannot vend at the event please reach out via email to vendors@thriftcon.co as soon as possible to let us know.
RESELLING - Transferring your booth space to someone else is strictly prohibited. We often have a large waitlist that we need to honor if you're unable to vend at ThriftCon. If you can't make it, hit up vendors@thriftcon.co as soon as possible.
Anyone caught reselling their booth space won't be asked back to vend at any future events.
SOUND - Personal speakers or other amplified sound is not allowed at individual booths. The attendees hate competing soundtracks. Sorry.
SPACE - ONLY BRING WHAT WILL FIT INTO YOUR ASSIGNED SPACE. Inventory in the aisles is not allowed per fire regulations and could get your booth shut down and banned from future events. This includes, but isn't limited to: clearance piles, racks, displays, tables, chairs and/or hanger sorters.
THIS IS INCREASINGLY BECOMING MORE AND MORE PROBLEMATIC. WE TRY TO BE AS COOL AS POSSIBLE ABOUT THIS BUT ARE BECOMING LESS SO. ONLY PACK WHAT WILL FIT IN YOUR BOOTH, PLEASE.
TENTS/CANOPIES - E-Z Ups or other types of pop up tents are allowed, but the canopy cover is not. That means if you plan to use a tent, you can only use the frame, no covering. This is a fire regulation and out of our control unfortunately :(
