Vendor Rules

  1. Tables must be kept as they are in the room. Please do not move them.
  2. All your merchandise must be contained on your table. Please do not encroach on another's space/table. If you do, you will be asked to move your items back onto your table.
  3. Do not hang things on the walls. If you cause damage to hotel property, you will be held liable.
  4. Currently, we do not allow the sale of smoking paraphernalia or adult items that are intended for sexual use. No other adult-themed items are allowed except for flat art/prints.
  5. All adult art must be kept in a binder/folder clearly marked for 18+. Genitalia and female nipples should be covered with post-notes to prevent minors from accidentally seeing adult art. You are responsible for preventing minors from viewing adult art. They will be wearing a badge that is clearly marked.

  8. All shelving units used to display goods on tables must be safe and stable. They will be inspected by Staff to ensure the safety of our guests.

  10. Dealers are not allowed to sell food, drinks, or candy. This is a hotel policy.
  11. All dealers are required to report sales tax according to NC tax laws. This will be the responsibility of each dealer.
