Corner Fee - Choose Booth Size 1st- Read Corner Description to the Right! $50.00 Corner fees are for those exhibitors who would like to be placed on a corner for extra exposure. This essentially creates two selling sides for the exhibitor. We recommend not ordering extra drape or setting up a panel on the open corner side so that your booth can be seen from many different directions.
8-Foot Table $20.00 Table Rental: IMPORTANT! These tables DO NOT come dressed (with table cloths on them.) Please make sure you bring table coverings for ALL your tables.

Chair $5.00 Rental of a folding chair with padded seat.
Side Drape Right $20.00 Each booth has a back drape that is 8' high and runs the length of the booth in sections of lavender and white fabric. However, if an exhibitor wants to close in, or "wall in" their booth, they can rent side drape for $20 per section. This is a rental of a side drape placed on the right of your booth. All side drape is white. Please keep in mind that if you wall in your booth, and the hall is filled with customers, your booth will have somewhat limited visibility. People will not be able to see your inventory unless they are right in front of your booth. All side & back drape special ordered like this is white.
Side Drape Left $20.00 Each booth has a back drape that is 8' high and runs the length of the booth in sections of lavender and white fabric. However, if an exhibitor wants to close in, or "wall in" their booth, they can rent side drape for $20 per section. This is a rental of a side drape placed on the left of your booth. All side drape is white. Please keep in mind that if you wall in your booth, and the hall is filled with customers, your booth will have somewhat limited visibility. People will not be able to see your inventory unless they are right in front of your booth. All side & back drape special ordered like this is white.
Side Drape - Back of Booth $20.00 Each booth has a back drape that is 8' high and runs the length of the booth in sections of lavender and white fabric. (See photo "EMG Spring Booth Set Up" in the "Related files" section of your application) Occasionally an exhibitor would prefer plain white drape instead of the mix of colors, so we set a white drape up with pipe that is self standing just in front of the existing colored drape. The reason for this is because the white and lavender drape acts as a back drape for both your booth and your neighbor behind you. Occasionally artists would like to bring their own drape for the back of the booth, and need an armature to hang it on. Lastly, sometimes an artist needs to hang items (like a quilt) at the back of their booth, and only items under 5lbs can be hung from the existing back drape (like a banner) so a second, self-standing pipe & drape is ordered and set up for this purpose. All side & back drape special ordered like this is white.

  • Please sign below that you understand and agree to abide by the following: Booths must remain intact and manned throughout all hours of the show and may not be dismantled prior to the closing of it. The Virginia Beach Spring Craft Market / Events Management Group, Inc. will not be held responsible for any issues arising from an unmanned booth during show hours. The loading dock will not be open for booth breakdown prior to the close of the event. If you break down your space prior to the end of the show you will be banned from setting up at future shows. Attendees have paid for the ability to shop with Exhibitors and expect them to be set up during show hours. By breaking down early you are doing both the attendees and the show a disservice. Please be advised that there are vendors and artists that we will no longer welcome back due to breaking this rule. The show's management takes this very seriously. It is unfair to attendees, the show, and other exhibitors to break down early.
