Rules and Regulations

Booth Operator agrees to abide by the rules and regulations as set forth herein and such other rules as may be established or amended by the Downtown Georgetown Association. Booth Operator will sell only those items or conduct those activities that have been specifically approved in writing. Furthermore, Booth Operator hereby releases, forever discharges and holds harmless the Downtown Georgetown Association from any responsibility or liability for loss, claims, damages, theft, injury or accident from activities conducted in preparation for, during and immediately following Christmas Stroll or the use of City premises for those purposes. Booth Operator assumes full and complete responsibility and will hold harmless the Downtown Georgetown Association, Williamson County, City of Georgetown, its officers, council members, directors, servants, agents, employees or volunteers from any loss, lost profits, damage or injury to the person or property of the Booth Operator or Booth Operator’s agents, customers, or invitees. It is further agreed that Booth Operator shall maintain his/her space, merchandise, activities and business practices in compliance with all applicable local, state and federal laws and regulations. Booth Operator understands that violation of or non-compliance with this release or any rule, regulation, law, ordinance, or decree may result in immediate expulsion of Booth Operator and his/her exhibit from the event without a refund of any applicable fees paid. Booth Operator is responsible for all “booth” setup and take-down of merchandise, displays and tents or covers. It is further understood that each booth operator is responsible for assuring that all items in his/her own booth are well secured in the event of inclement weather, i.e. wind, rain, etc., and weights must be used to secure all corners and parts of booth (tables, shelves, hanging racks, etc.) so they cannot blow into or damage another booth operator’s booth/merchandise.

No stakes are allowed. In the event that Booth Operator’s tent or any part of the booth causes damage to another vendor’s booth due to negligence on his/her part, the Booth Operator will be responsible for those damages.

1. There are a very limited number of showcase booths available for re-sale items or advertising.

2. We limit the number of the same types of booths (i.e. jewelry, clothing, candles etc.) in order to give our visitors the best mix of merchandise from which to choose.

3. All vendors must be at least 18 years of age and be able to provide a Sales Tax Permit or Health Department Permit.

4. All food booths are required to secure a Health Permit. Williamson County Permit Link and must abide by city of Georgetown Fire Department Rules Click Here

5. Completion of application does not guarantee selection. This is a juried show and all entries are reviewed for acceptability.

6. NO garage sale or flea market items are permitted.

7. Approved vendors may not subcontract their booth space.

8. A confirmed reservation from the DGA is a commitment to show. If you are unable to attend, a courtesy call is expected prior to the show.

10. No tent stakes are allowed. 30lb weights per leg must be brought by vendor to secure your tent/awning.

11. In the event of inclement weather, DGA will make every effort to hold/continue the event. All vendors are expected to comply.
