WE’RE BACK, BAYBEEEEEE!!! Click on the banner above to “Apply Directly”!

Spaces for this show are just $200, which gets you a spacious 10’x10′ space for the entire weekend of the show, the Friday Night Set-Up, snacks, drinks, access to our private offices at the event, booth sitting services, and whatever other perks I can come up with between then and now. This right here, though, this is JUST a link to the application – No money, no space selection, no contracts, nuthin’ except YOU introducing us to what it is you plan on showing off and selling at Oddmall. I’m not going to waste all your precious time on reading and filling out a bunch of moot points if you’re not accepted! So what’s gonna happen when you submit an application, is that we’re gonna run it past our esteemed panel of judges and get back to you within 72 hours. If you didn’t quite make the cut, don’t worry – it’s probably just because we already have too many vendors selling similar product! You’ll get a very nice “Maybe next time, champ” email from us. But if you’re ACCEPTED, you’ll get an email with all sorts of Next-Step Stuff! What stuff? I’M SO GLAD YOU ASKED!!!

• An invoice for $200!
• A map of the venue showing what tables are still available – current map can be found by clicking here – https://oddmall.co/november-13-14-2021-evergreen-state-fairgrounds/ – so you can choose where you’d like to be (you will choose your top 3 spaces and we’ll do our best to get you where you want)
• A copy of the Vendor Contract for you to digitally sign and return to us, which you can read ahead of time if you like by clicking over to the Registration / Show Rules link at https://oddmall.co/registration.
• The love and adoration of the entire Captain Slinky Presents Oddmall Emporium Of The Weird cast and crew!

Hello Vendors & Patrons!

Thank you all for your patience and understanding over the last year and a half. Let’s get right to it!

The Oddmall PNW shows are finally coming back! The next show is going to be at the Fairgrounds, but in a different building. (Our old building will be demolished after this year’s fair. The new building is much nicer, with smooth concrete floors, has bathrooms in the building and will give Oddmall an entire new feel and upgrade.

There are some pretty major changes, including NEW MANAGEMENT of the events in the greater Puget Sound area. When I started Oddmall in the PNW in 2013 I had big dreams of Oddmall across the country, my brother is the creator of Oddmall and started Oddmall in Akron, Ohio in 2009. There have been over 50 Oddmall shows since then. The shows in this area going forward will be run and managed by your fellow vendor/artist Captain Slinky (of Captain Slinky’s Weird Lamps – Aka Brian Pierce). Captain Slinky has been a part of Oddmall since 2014 and Slinky and his family will be taking over ownership of the local shows so I can concentrate my efforts to expand the Oddmall Empire beyond Western Washington!

My plan is to develop different areas of the country to produce more Oddmall events with partnerships from local vendors who would like to have a show in their area. Captain Slinky will be running shows from Everett – Bellingham and in the Snohomish County area as well as Renton. I will be actively seeking people in the near future to run shows from Renton South to Olympia, Centralia – Portland and Yakima, Spokane and Tri-cities as well as Lynwood to Issaquah, (Areas have not been formalized at this time, but the idea is to have multiple shows in the state working together under the Oddmall Emporium of the Weird Banner. Please contact me at oddmallseattle@gmail.com if you are interested in running shows in your area.

From here on out, all your Oddmall PNW correspondence will be coming from Captain Slinky with a new Oddmall email address. The new email address is – csoddmall@gmail.com – so make sure to read what he sends you as it will have all the information for you about this show and all upcoming shows!

I will still be a part of all shows going forward, but in a more behind the scenes / consulting role. I plan to teach Captain Slinky all I know about how to produce a successful show and I am confident going forward that Oddmall is in the right hands.

I am happy to answer any questions you might have, you can still contact me at Oddmallseattle@gmail.com .

Thank you for 8 years of Oddness,

David Hopp
Oddmall PNW Founder and Manager
