The Contract


Payment Policy: 

● Our preferred payment method is Paypal. Other payment methods may be considered upon request. 

● Your space is not held until payment is received in full. If you need to make payment arrangements, please reach out to csoddmall@gmail.com. 100% of your booth fee MUST be paid at least 60 days in advance. Cancellations within 30 days of the event result in a complete forfeiture of your payment, otherwise we will refund all but a $100 cancellation fee per booth space. 

Wheaton’s Law: Our Official “Don’t Be A Dick” Policy: 

● Oddmall will be a place where everyone (including the showrunners) feels safe. We absolutely will not tolerate hate (except for candy corn, screw that stuff, it is wax pretending to be candy), bullying, violence, (including verbal or physical intimidation or altercations), any sort of threatening behavior, homophobia or racism. If you cannot agree to not be a dick, Oddmall is not the place for you. If you engage in dickish behavior you will be asked to leave and you will not be allowed to come back. Oddmall makes the final call regarding if a behavior is dickish. Violating this rule will result in your removal from the show with no refunds. 

Your Space

● If extension cords are used, they must be secured to the floor with gaffers tape, which you MUST SUPPLY AND REMOVE after the show. 

● Leave your space as clean as you found it on check in, pick up all garbage, zip ties, etc. and take them with you. Do not leave your garbage at the venue. If you leave garbage at your space I will find you and frown HARD at you. 

● Do not use nails or anything that will damage or mark the walls or floors.

● No free-range glitter or confetti or lit flames. 

● Your product must stay within the confines of the space you paid for without consent from a representative of the Oddmall team 

● Canopy frames ARE ALLOWED as long as they fit within your designated space and do not block other vendors; please refer to the “Wheaton’s Law” section. The Canopy “Top”, “Cover”, “Tent” “Lid”, whatever you call it, cannot be used in any INDOOR venue as per the fire code. (This applies to any indoor venue with sprinklers for all events, not just Oddmall, as per the Fire Chief. We aren’t just being mean, we too love dark enclosed spaces and wish we could bring our portable hidey holes, but the Fire Chief told us scary stories and now we’re super OK with following the rules. 

● If you are physically able, please return any rented tables/chairs to their racks. 

●Your booth space will be determined by the needs of the show and may be moved to a space of equal value.. We work to make reasonable accommodations but cannot guarantee your preferred location. 

Your time commitment to Oddmall: 

● You understand that you must arrive no later than 45 minutes before our start time. (IE if the show starts at 10am, you must arrive absolutely no later than 9:15am.) We freak out a bit if it’s getting close to show time and your booth is empty. It isn’t just that we have an empty place, we worry about you. Don’t make us worry. If you arrive later than 45 minutes before our start time you may not be allowed to set up and you will forfeit your booth fees. 

● You understand that your space must be set up and ready for customers 15 minutes before start time. 

● You must remain open until all customers have left the space. You may not tear down or consolidate any merchandise prior to all customers leaving the space after the posted end time. Seriously – remember that don’t be a dick thing? We all know that tearing down early is rude to the show runners, your vendor friends and our customers. We know you want to get home (and so do we), but please don’t be a dick to us. 

● The individual who was juried into Oddmall, and is a member of our group must be present at your booth space during each show. If someone else shows up without prior approval, they may be sent away and you will forfeit your fees. 

● You must be able to tear down and vacate your space within 2 hours of the show ending.  

Our Oddlings (the OddSquad volunteers) 

● We have volunteers to booth sit while you run to the bathroom or grab a snack. Keep your breaks to 15 minutes or less. You may not be able to run to the food trucks during this time, please consider packing in a lunch if you don’t have a booth buddy. 

● Oddlings are very helpful but they are not required to do anything they don’t feel comfortable with including load in / load out. We do not have dedicated staff to help with load in/out. 

Selling Stuff 

● Types of items that cannot be sold at these events: ABSOLUTELY No drugs, illegal drug paraphernalia*, alcohol, pornography, food items in open containers. *Marijuana is legal, you can draw all the pot leaves you want. 

● Keep it family friendly, nothing more graphic than PG13.

  1. Hello, I am with the Mt. Loop Witches Troupe. We’re a group of ladies that dress up as witches and perform a dance.

    We were not made privy to this event until yesterday when we performed. At the Alchemy fair . We’d like to be honored by being allowed to come dance at the odd mall event on November 11th.

    Is that possible?

    1. Hi, Lynn! You Witches are welcome to come dance at Oddmall any old time you like! We already have a troupe of Skagit Valley Witches coming to do the same at some point during the weekend, and I offer you the same! There won’t be room inside for the dancing, but most of the action will be outside by the food trucks anyways!
