The NPR Fourth Friday is a monthly, evening, outdoor market. The market takes place in Historic Downtown New Port Richey once a month from 6pm – 10pm.
Please note that submitting a vendor application form does not guarantee a vending spot. Space is limited and vendors will be selected based on their contribution to the diversity of the market as a whole.
There is no fee to apply. Submitting your application DOES NOT guarantee your acceptance to the market. Your space is not confirmed until your final payment is made. All invoices must be paid 30 days before the market starts.
The Market Manager will determine if a product meets the needs of the market. If it does not, your application may be denied or placed on a waitlist. There is no time frame for determining when a waitlisted application may be accepted into the market. We are limiting the number of vendors in each category to give our vendors a better selling advantage and our consumers a variety of products. Please allow 7-14 business days for the review of your application due to the high volume of applications. If you do not hear from us within this time frame, you have been placed on the waitlist.
Because we try to give each vendor the best selling advantage within the market, we try not to duplicate vendor categories (Clay Jewelry, Resin Jewelry, Resin Art, Tumblers, Baked Goods, Candles, etc). Therefore, we may rotate vendors either on a monthly basis or between the 2 market locations.
There are no promises to book you on the location you want, but we will try to keep your location consistent to the best of our ability.
If you have any questions, feel free to message us on Facebook or Instagram.
How to qualify to be a Vendor
All market applications are reviewed in the completed online version only. It is necessary for an interested potential vendor to complete an online Vendor Application in its entirety, providing the required licenses, their company description, product listings and social media account so we can view your product photos. If the application is not completed correctly and/or fully it will not be reviewed for a vendor space.
