Thank you for showing interest in becoming a vendor at the Salt Spring Tuesday Market, hosted by the SSI Community Market Society. Our first market of the season is
May 20, 2025 and our last market of the season is
October 28,
2025 for a total of 24 market days. Operating hours are from
1:30 PM - 5:30 PM.
You may register as either a Seasonal Vendor or a Day Vendor.
Seasonal Vendors pay fees upfront and secure their location at the market while also receiving a discount. Seasonal Vendors pay $3.50 per foot of frontage space they occupy (for example, a 10x10 tent would pay $35 per market day). The discount Seasonal Vendors receive is the equivalent to 2 free market days and a lower price per foot of frontage space occupied. So, a Seasonal Vendor with a 10x10 tent pays $770 in stall fees for the season. Fees can be paid in 1 or 2 instalments at the beginning of the season.
Day Vendors have the flexibility of choosing which markets they attend, with no minimum number of markets required. They do not have the same stall location guaranteed to them for every market. Day Vendors pay a stall fee on the market days that they attend. The price is $4 per foot of frontage space occupied (for example, a 10x10 tent would pay $40 per market day attended).
Additionally, there is an annual $20 Membership Fee and $30 Registration Fee to be paid by
all vendors.

Market Policies & GuidelinesPlease also review the 'Guideline for the Sale of Foods at Temporary Food Markets' from Vancouver Island Health Authority (VIHA), especially if you plan to sell any prepared or ready-to-eat foods.
Guideline for the Sale of Foods at Temporary Food Markets
If any of the products you are planning to sell fall into the 'higher risk' foods category, you will need a Letter of Confirmation from VIHA before you sell the product. If the product is considered a ready-to-eat food, you will need additional approvals before you can sell the product at the market.
If you plan to sell beer, wine, cider or spirits you will need approval from the BC Liquor Control and Licensing Branch. Serving It Right certification is also required.
