8-Bit Block Party Show Guidelines and Policies 2023
​
Registration Process: Applications for 8-Bit Block Party are done through the website – 8bitblockparty.com. Approved vendors will receive a Square invoice using the email vendors provide on the application. These invoices will only last for two weeks. After that, vendors must email dragonfistgamesstore@gmail.com to get an updated invoice.
Application acceptance DOES NOT reserve a booth space. Vendors must pay booth fees in full to reserve their booth space. 8-Bit Block Party reserves the right to choose where to place vendors in the floor plan, but will consider reasonable requests sent in email form. Floor plans will be posted in website link at 8bitblockparty.com and through email closer to the show date.
Refund Policy – Up to 2 months prior to show, a vendor who has already paid their booth fees may get a full refund in the event of cancellation (deadline is May 15, 2023). Past the 2 month deadline and up to 4 weeks prior to the show a vendor may get a 50% refund in the event of cancellation (deadline is June 17, 2023). Less than 4 weeks from the show, no refunds will be issued to vendors who cancel, NO EXCEPTIONS.
Vendors are responsible for their property at all times. Do not leave items or merchandise unattended. 8-Bit Block Party employees, staff volunteers, or event center personnel are not responsible for any property that is stolen, damaged or otherwise misplaced at any time.
Vendors are responsible for their own booth set up, take down and clean up.
​
No outside food or drink will be permitted.
Tables and chairs: All spaces are 10x10. Vendors may use their own tables if they wish. 6’x30’’ tables can be provided by the facility. We will place one table and two sets of chairs in your labeled space on load in day on Friday July 14, 2023. It is the vendors choice if they wish to use the table or use their own setup.
