- Booths are located along the event's Main Street area, inside the Main Gym, and inside the Aux Gym. Booths located at the two event entrances (along the event's Saturn Parkway) are reserved for the Presenting and Gold Sponsors only. Other booths that are not numbered and/or are shaded RED are reserved for other sponsor levels. Booths in the Food Court are for licensed food vendors only.

**Saturn Parkway & Entrance Booths** SOLD OUT
- These booths are positioned in the school's hallway leading into the Main Gym and Aux Gym Areas just beyond the main entrances. Therefore, all attendees will have to walk right in front of you, making this a great location.
- However, booth spaces along the Main Street Area may not house tents as they are slightly wider but not as deep as some other spaces within the event (approximately 12'x8' instead of 10'x10'). You will not be allowed to set up a 10'x10' tent along Main Street. If you plan to use a tent, please choose a booth in the Main Gym or Aux Gym Areas.
- Main Street booths are open to Spring Hill Chamber members only and includes electricity if needed (please let us know).
**Main Gym Area Booths**
- This area is for the presenting and gold sponsors. If you are a presenting or gold sponsor, you will be emailed a description of your booth area and instructions.
**Aux Gym Booths**
- These booths are positioned inside the school’s Main Gym.
- Booths in the Main Gym Area are open to everyone.
- Only booths shaded in gold have electricity capability in this area. Electricity is $50 extra. You are not allowed to split/share your electricity with a booth beside you as this will pull on the capacity of the school's electricity. Note: If you only have a laptop or POS to run, we highly recommend purchasing a battery powered power supply unit (range $60-100) to use during the event. Most of these provide power for 4+ hours which is plenty of time for the event if you charge your devices beforehand. If you attend this event as a vendor for two years, the unit will be paid for and you can use it at other events.
- You may use 10'x10' tents for your booth space in this area.
- All booths shaded in red are reserved for sponsors.
**Food Court Booths** SOLD OUT

- Booths in the Aux Gym Area are ideal for businesses that offer services or products for children or families (ex. pediatricians, schools, dance studios, toy stores, etc.).
- The Aux Gym Area is a fun space where characters will make appearances, dance and other performances will happen, and child-friendly games and activities will take place. Note: It is a little louder in this area at times since there is a lot of activities going on. It is advisable you provide something to engage the children in this space.

**Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)**

- Contact Becca Melton or Angela Hardison if you are interested in sponsoring this community event.
- SELLING ITEMS: You are allowed to sell products at your booth as long as you adhere to federal, state, and local laws.
- FOOD: Restaurant-style served food may only be sold/served in the Food Court. Non-refrigerated grocery-style packaged food (coffee beans, spices, rubs, boxed mixes) may be sold at your booth. Food Court vendors providing food must be licensed restaurants or caterers. Food Court vendors must sell their food, as we do not allow food sampling only. Booths inside areas other than the Food Court may not give away or provide sample tastings of restaurant-style food (packaged candy and dog biscuits are okay).
- FOOD TRUCKS: As this is primarily an indoor event with food vendors indoors, we do not allow food trucks on the school property outside the event at this time. If you wish to serve food at this event, please sign up as an indoor food vendor located inside our food garden area.
- MLM VENDORS & ARTIST/MAKER BOOTHS: We celebrate the diversity and vibrancy of all businesses in Spring Hill, including MLM vendors and artists/makers. Our experiences have shown that this event resonates more as a community gathering intertwined with a professional business expo, rather than a traditional artist/maker or festival setting. In light of this, while we welcome the unique contributions of all vendors, we carefully curate the mix of booths to align with the event's focus. Please reach out to us at (931) 486-0625 or email Meredithe Hyjek and we can get you in touch with a few events that may be more suited to your unique business.
- PROMOS: If you need to order promo items to use or give away during the event, feel free to use our list of members in the industry here. For your calculations, we had more than 3,500 attendees last year.

Vendor set up will be the Friday before the event between 3 PM and 6 PM or the morning of the event between 8 AM and 9:30 AM. All vendors must be in place and ready to greet attendees by 10:00 AM. Therefore, please mark these load-in times on your calendar as well.
