About the application

The KumoriMarket Exhibitor Area provides space to retailers and other dealers selling a wide range of goods at the convention.

Applications for the Kumoricon 2024 Exhibitor Area will open on Monday, May 27 and will close on or before Saturday, August 31, at 11:59pm Pacific Time. Applications may close early if all spots are filled.

We will notify applicants as they are accepted throughout the application period, so earlier applicants are given greater consideration.
 
If you have already signed and paid as a pre-registered exhibitor at Kumoricon 2023, you do not need to apply using this form unless instructed to by KumoriMarket management to do so.

2024 Booth Rate Options
Similar to previous years, almost all booths are corner booths. A corner booth is defined as having at least two of its four sides open. All booths will come with a single 8-foot table and two chairs:

$1000 per 10-ft by 10-ft Premium booth. Premium booths are located with the closest proximity to the KumoriMarket entrance/exit, in comparison to all exhibitor booths. [Sold out, but can be requested! ]

$900 per 10-ft by 10-ft Standard booth. Standard booths are located in the middle sections of the Exhibitor Area, but are not in close proximity to the KumoriMarket entrance/exit or along the back walls.

$800 per 10-ft by 10-ft Discount booth. Discount booths are located along the back walls of the KumoriMarket and are the furthest from the entrance/exit.

$50 deduction per inline booth. An inline booth is any booth that has walls on at most three of its four sides. Corner booths converted by you or the decorator on your behalf at-con to be inline booths will not qualify for this deduction.

To comply with legal requirements, all exhibitors are required to have a Portland Business License [https://www.portland.gov/revenue/temporary-business-license]. Temporary registrations are available.

Exhibitors seeking space in the Exhibitor Area should not register as attendees at this time, but instead, apply for Exhibitor booth(s) using the form below.
