Downtown businesses invited to register for space in front of store
The Wilmington Chamber invites all North Water St businesses to participate in this year’s market. Businesses that register prior to April 1 may reserve two spaces in front of their storefront. Additional vendor spaces may be requested, subject to availabililty. You do not need to be a Chamber member to receive this benefit. Vendor space fees apply.
Food vendors required to register with city
A Wilmington city ordinance requires all mobile food vendors to apply with the city annually. You must apply directly with the city and receive approval before we can approve your application for this or any Chamber event. The mobile food vendor application is available at the city’s website. This is an additional annual fee implemented by the City of Wilmington, and in no part is it collected by or redirected to the Chamber.
Setup
You may begin setting up no earlier than 7:00 a.m. after checking in at the north end of Water St. Arrive no later than 8:00 a.m. and remove all vehicles before 8:40 a.m. or spaces will be forfeited.
Vendor parking
Vendors should use nearby public parking at 106 N Main St. and 110 Bridge St., or street parking where allowed.
