Approved vendors must commit to attending and staffing your booth for the entire duration of the event, November 16 - December 31, 2023 (snow, rain, cold or shine) and be able to supply adequate inventory. Hours of operation are:
- Monday - Thursday, noon - 9PM; Friday and Saturday noon-10PM; and Sunday noon to 9PM. Closed Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Open New Year’s Eve until 11PM.
Approved vendor booths must adhere to Toronto Public Health guidelines of cleanliness, proper sanitation, and adequate lighting and signage, and must be pre-approved by The Distillery District. Food vendors will need to be inspected and receive a “Green Pass” to operate and will be inspected daily for food safety.
Approved vendors must not sell directly competing merchandise as our full-time retailers at The Distillery District, as to offer a unique shopping experience for the holiday market.
Approved vendors must carry their own liability insurance ($5 Million), as they will not be covered by The Distillery Historic District’s insurance. Proof of valid insurance is required and must be presented in advance to The Distillery Events Team.
All sales must be made through the provided merchant services terminal. These sales will be deposited into The Distillery Winter Village account. A portion of vendor sales will be collected and retained as rent (minimum amount required), and the remainder of sales will be paid to the vendor on a weekly basis.
Approved vendors will be responsible for their own expenses including but not limited to: customized booth signage and décor, staffing, propane, cleaning, kitchen equipment, liability insurance, parking, and transportation.
Approved vendors agree to support the promotion of their participation as a vendor at The Distillery Winter Village via word of mouth and social media or other promotional/marketing means. As we must each do our part to ensure success of the event, your digital presence will be considered in our selection process.
