Your Vendor Space at the Ball
• The Magickal Marketplace is mostly in the Basement of the Masonic Temple, and there may be
additional vendor spaces available on the second floor. You may unload at the back (east)
door loading dock or the south door ramp, then bring your merchandise downstairs or
upstairs. There is an elevator at the south entrance. It’s old and slow, but it works.
• The psychics are in the South Lodge Room on the second floor. It will be easiest for the
psychics to load and unload at the south door.
• Vendor space will be assigned on a first come, first served basis, as registrations are
received. Please indicate any mobility impairment or similar disability so that we can
position you close to a door.
• The cost to vend or read is $75 per table space, based on a 8ft banquet table space in
a 10ft wide by 6ft deep space for vendors, or space for a card table and easel for the
psychics. Pay $5 more to rent a table from us.
• As space is limited, build your display up, not out. Get creative! Merchants may use
tables, shelves and/or clothing racks totaling 8ft instead. Do not tape or affix anything to
the walls. Free-standing backdrops for the vendors OK.
• If your merchandise or display does not fit on your table, or take up a similar-sized
replacement space, you will be asked to remove it.
• Vendor spaces include admission for up to 2 people to vend (including yourself) for each
space. If there are 3 or more people total per space then you must purchase additional chairs
• Psychics do not require sales personnel. Anyone you bring needs to pay.
Setup, Sales, and Breakdown Times
• Your vending or reading hours are from 6PM to 11:30PM.
• Vendor setup is from 3:30PM to 6PM. All setup must be completed by 6PM. Psychics
do not need to arrive before 5PM, or even a little later.
• Breakdown from 11:30PM to 1AM
• Please keep noise down after midnight (during the midnight ritual).
• We appreciate you packing up as quickly as possible at the end of the evening. We must
be completely out by 1:30AM. If you are planning to attend the midnight ritual, pack up
as much as you can beforehand, as we cannot guarantee the safety of your unattended products.
• If all merchandise and personal possessions are not out of the building by 1:30AM you
will be charged an extra $50 per hour, to help offset extra staffing expense. If necessary,
you may finish packing your vehicle in the back parking lot after the doors are locked.
Parking and Loading/Unloading
You may park in the back (north) end of the parking lot behind the Temple and load and unload
through the back or south doors. Please carpool, if possible. Do not block the back loading dock
as other vendors, staff and kitchen will need to use it. This back entrance will not be used by the
general public, only by merchants and staff. Please do not have anyone use the back door unless
they have first been through registration at the front door and received their wristband.
Checking In When You Arrive
Please check in at the Info Booth near the south door when you first arrive. Here you will be
checked off the Merchant and Psychic list and given your wristband. Please wait in line at the
Info Table, south door, elevator or loading dock so that set up may proceed in an orderly fashion.
Your wristband will get you in and out of the Ball all night. Please flash it at the doorkeeper each time you arrive.
Please help us promote the Witches’ Ball so that YOU have maximum traffic by your booth! We
have thousands of promo postcards which we are asking all our vendors and volunteers to help
distribute to their contacts, customers, and membership groups. Please send info to your email
lists and post online to Facebook, Twitter, etc. Co-op advertising is a win/win strategy!
