Rules and Understandings

Event starts at 9am and ends at 5pm. Vendors must stay open for the entire event. Set-up permitted after 7am, vehicles must be off the street no later than 8:30am, and will not be allowed back in until 5pm.

Please understand that the event mandate is first and foremost to promote Downtown Courtenay BIA member businesses. Applicant products must be hand-made by the application and imported hand-crafted items are not eligible for inclusion in the market. If in this application the vendor does not accurately describe their product and is selling a manufactured product that is in conflict with a Downtown Courtenay BIA business, they will be removed from the event without a refund. If in doubt, please contact the coordinator for clarification.

Booth space is 11’x11’ and will be assigned a few days prior to the event; a confirmation email will be sent then with event map. On the morning of the event participants will find their placement by name or number written on the sidewalk beside their space. Non-BIA businesses will be placed based on a first come basis, by the date applications are received and paid in full. * see #13

BIA Members have first right of refusal to space in front of their business, but ONLY if they submitted applications with full payment by the deadline of June 5th 2023. Those BIA Members who are not located on 5th street have second priority of booth placement as close to their storefront location.

All booths must be 10 ft from the centre line of the street; Courtenay Fire Department Regulation.

Participants are responsible for arranging electrical needs through downtown storefronts, but generally this is a no-power event. Electricity cannot be accessed on city trees or lamps. Any Electrical appliances or equipment must be CSA/ULC certified, and electrical cords must be in good condition and taped to the ground where they may cause tripping hazard.

Participants such as food vendors that require a generator will be placed at the edges of the market to minimize noise annoyance to others. Participants may be placed near buskers and/or other music.

No cars may be parked in the street during the event. All cars must be parked as far out of the downtown core as possible to allow customers the use of prime space during the event. Use the parking lot behind the CVRD building, access off Grant or Harmston Avenues and 6th Street.

Some businesses have curb bumps and gardens in front of their businesses. Frontage space requested by these businesses may have to include this area in cases where there is no room to move left or right.

Non-BIA Applications must be received and paid in full no later than July 4, 2023. A space is not considered reserved until it is paid for.

DCBIA reserves the right to create protocol and policy based on current and changing PHO requirements.

Do not attend if you are unwell. Please plan for an alternate booth representative in case of COVID or other sickness as there will be no last-minute refunds.

When you submit this completed form with payment you will receive a confirmation via email. This is your receipt.
