IMPORTANT FACTS FOR VENDORS
Marda Gras is a rain or shine event and has a NO REFUND POLICY after registration is complete.
Registration is first come, first served and there is no deadline to register. However it is recommended to register early as to not miss out on the opportunity to participate.
Vendors must arrive onsite at the time indicated on their set up instructions. The streets are closed to vehicular traffic at 9 am sharp.
Power and water are NOT provided to vendors. Generators are not permitted except for food trucks/trailers.
All vendor tents must have a CAN/ULC-S109 fire retardancy certificate and be weighted with 25 lbs per leg. The weight must be tied to the tent frame. This is an issue of public safety. A city building inspector will ask you to take down your tent if you do not have proper weights for your tent.
The festival does its best to meet vendor requests, however we do not guarantee specific locations.
All items must be kept within 10′ of the curb. Display racks and tables included. You will be asked to move your display if you do not adhere to this policy.
Please note that you will be required to meet all provincial and municipal regulations.
If you require a tent and would like to rent one, please contact Shannon at mardagrascalgary@gmail.com.
If you are selling food, you must comply with Alberta Health Services standards and either complete a temporary food establishment vendor notification form or have an AHS mobile permit Number (CGY-000). A form must be completed if you are sampling items or selling pre-packaged goods such as pop or popcorn. Send this completed form to mardagrascalgary@gmail.com.
