Vendor Questions

How do I become a vendor?

Fill out the application with as much detail as you can provide. Space is limited so not every applicant can be chosen.

We will be chosing vendors based on the quality (read effort) of their application and our experience with them as past vendors.

Successful appicants will be notified by January 15th, 2026.

What type of vendors are you looking for?

We’re trying to host a “pure” comic convention. There are lots of pop cuture conventions so we want to have an event dedicated to comic book fans. We’re asking all vendors to have at least 50% of their tables dedicated to comic books. The rest of the table should be in the pop culture/comics sphere. Things like vintage toys, video games and other collectibles.

What are the tables sizes and costs?

Each table is 8 feet wide. You can fit approximately 12 long boxes of comics on the table.

The cost per table is $100. Vendors are limited to a maximum of 2 tables for $200.

How is my table location determined?

After all vendor applicants have been chosen, we will determine table layouts based on who has single tables and who has double tables a assign tables based on the best flow of traffic for our guests.

When can I start setting up?

Doors will open for vendors at 8am. The general public will be allowed in at 10am so you MUST be set up before 10am.

If you are not set up prior to opening, you will not be invited back to future events.

Will there be concession or food available?

There is concessions available at the Acadia Recreation Complex.

Can I share a table with another vendor?

Yes! If you feel you’re not able to fill a full table with comics, you’re welcome to partner with a friend or another vendor. Just send us the details so we can arrange the tables correctly and advertise everyone involved.

What is your refund policy?

Vendor cancellations are non-refundable. However, if a vendor cancels at least 30 days before the event and we successfully fill the booth, a 100% rollover credit may be issued for use at a future event. If the booth cannot be filled, no credit will be provided. Additionally, failure to attend without prior notice will result in no credit and disqualification from participating in future events. While we maintain a strict no-refund policy, we aim to offer flexibility by providing credits under certain conditions. This approach helps us effectively manage event logistics while supporting our vendors whenever possible.

I can't make it, can I give my table to someone else?

No. We select all the vendors for the show to make sure they’re who we want there. If you’re unable to be. vendor and have someone in mind to take your spot, please have them fill out the vendor application so we can review their information.
