GENERAL SET-UP IDEAS For a Sample Schematic Layout for an event with a Fashion Show, click here.
GENERAL MARKETPLACE Supplies: (The Venue Committee procures these items, so check in with them.) Heat Lamps - If it’s an evening event outside and you know the temperature drops at that time, rent these Tents, Awnings, Umbrellas - If the event is outside during the day, especially in summer, provide shade so no one Fans - If the venue doesn’t have air conditioning, rent a lot of fans. Lights - Illuminate merchandise for each vendor, especially if the room is dark Shoe vendors need more space and tables than other vendors. Set the space up like a mini shoe salon and give them roughly 15' x 15'. The vendors usually adjust the tables, chairs, and 5' x 7' carpets once they get there. They like to store the boxes of shoes against the wall. This way they are easy to get to and have something to lean against. It's a hassle to store shoe boxes under the table because they have to bend over, lift the drape, and dig around for the shoes. Supplies: Shoes (the Venue Committee procures these items) Mirrors - One full-length mirror per vendor Carpets - These are EXTREMELY important because they preserve the bottoms of new shoes. Provide one 5' x 7' (minimum size) carpet (not a rubber mat) per shoe vendor. And if the marketplace is on grass, provide plywood under the carpet so guests can stand. Chairs and benches: Guests sit while trying on footwear Tables - Eight or nine eight-foot tables (speak with vendors individually about needs, generally shoe vendors need more room for box storage and display)
CLOTHING & ACCESSORIES VENDORS Supplies: Clothing and Accessories (The Venue Committee procures these items) Mirrors - One tabletop and one full-length mirror per vendor
