Frequently Asked Questions

Can the event be held outside?

We prefer to hold most of the event indoors to avoid any issues with bad weather. However, we can accommodate some vendors with tent setups.

Can the space be smaller than listed? 

Our smallest venue can accommodate 55 booths, including the lobby area. We require a minimum of 50 booths to ensure a diverse range of vendors and a positive experience for attendees.

How far from Surprise would you host an event?

Approximately 50% of our vendors are willing to travel to all our shows, regardless of the location. The Chamber is open to hosting events within Maricopa County, depending on the demographic characteristics of your community, such as the number of homes and the presence of active adults.

Do you ensure vendors have insurance before coming onto each property?

 We add the host site as an additional insured on our insurance policy and issue a certificate to insurance to that effect. The Chamber also has an insurance policy covering up to $10,000 for damage to rental equipment. Currently, the Chamber does not require vendors to provide proof of insurance.

How far ahead of time do you need to set up? 

Vendors need 2 hours to set up their booths and 1 hour to tear them down. The Chamber requires 1.5 hours to set up the room and prefers to do so the day before the event, if possible.
