SUMMER VENDORS
Thank you for your interest in participating at the Park Silly Sunday Market.
Summer 2025 application will be available December 15, 2024
We are committed to our vendors, participants and community, and will do everything in our power to make your experience with us enjoyable, lively and profitable. In 2024, the Park Silly Sunday Market saw over 186,000 people and averaged 16,000 people per Sunday. Vendors should keep in mind that they are not required to participate every Sunday; however, vendors ARE required to participate all day 10am – 5pm, rain or shine, on each day approved on their application.
We look very carefully at the entire range of products being offered by our vendors. We use an online application system called Manage My Market. All vendors are admitted based on what type of products we feel will enhance the Market experience. All products should be attractive to Market customers without diluting the existing product base. We welcome new vendors every week and strive to always keep variety at the Market. Vendors have the option to choose the specific Sundays on which they want to participate. We do not provide exclusivity for any vendor or product type. Not all applications are accepted/invited. Please note that vendors must agree to all policies outlined in the Vendor Handbook – updates include No-Show/Cancel fee for any vendor that arrives late, leaves early, no-shows or cancels with less than 72 hours written notice.

Park Silly Sunday Market is an apolitical organization and does not allow promotion of any political party or individual within the Market boundaries.
