Vendor Information & Application

for the IJA festival in Portland, OR
July 17-23, 2006

The IJA invites you to participate as a vendor at the 59th Annual IJA Festival. The festival will be held at the Oregon Convention Center in the heart of beautiful Portland, Oregon, USA. The vendors will be located in the festival's main gym, where hundreds of jugglers and scores of visiting members of the Portland public will be enjoying open juggling.

Vending opportunities are available to anyone who has items that would be of interest to jugglers. This is not a juried show, nor do items need to be handcrafted.

Vendors are encouraged to set up early on Monday, July 17; many jugglers and members of the public will be on hand and will want to visit your booth if you are ready for them.

Space will be pre-assigned. If you have any requests, we will do our best to fulfill them, but cannot make any guarantees. There is a limit to the number of spaces available; first come, first served. If the space is full when you register, you will receive a full refund immediately. Sorry, we cannot guarantee available space to vendors who do not pre-register.

All vendors must be IJA members. You may join the IJA on your vendor registration form, or at the IJA Store.

While security will be provided, the IJA is not responsible for any theft, loss or damage during the festival. A limited amount of onsite storage will be provided, if needed, during the event.

• Check In & Set up: Monday, July 17, 9am-5pm (open to jugglers and public)
  
• Festival Dates: Tuesday, July 18 - Saturday, July 22, 9am-5pm
  (While vendors may open their booths earlier or later than these hours, we recommend that a vendor representative be at their booth at least during these hours)
  
• Tear down: Sunday, July 23, anytime before 3pm (no events, but open to jugglers and public)

If a vendor needs to arrive later than 5pm Monday, July 17, or must leave earlier than Sunday, July 23, please let us know so that we can situate your booth space to allow for the least amount of disruption to the festival. Thank you for your consideration.
