🍍 Hello Vendors, and thank you for your interest in PopCult Anime Con! 🍍
PCAC prefers vendors who are best suited to our audience and current exhibitor hall size. Booths are 8’x8′ and limited to one per exhibitor as space is limited. Vendors are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis after passing a basic criteria check by exhibitor staff.
🍍 Things We Look For in a Vendor Application 🍍
* Business owner is at least 18 years of age and able to provide a Massachusetts Sales Tax ID number.
* Business can provide some form of online content, website or social media presence.
* Vendor carries quality goods that are of interest to our audience and
* Does NOT chiefly stock food, weapons or bootleg merchandise.
Booths are $225 each and include one full-weekend convention badge. Additional badges will be available to purchase at a discounted rate for vendors once their application has been accepted. Vendors are free to bring their own set-up equipment and/or arrange with staff a number of 6′ tables and chairs by July 31st. There will be set-up time available on both Friday night and Saturday morning before the Exhibitor Hall opens to the public.
🍍 Basic Rules & Cancellation/Refund Policy 🍍
Please fill out your applications completely before sending them in, as they will not be able to be modified afterward. Exhibitors must be 18 years or older to apply and a Massachusetts Sales Tax ID is required. Current Massachusetts state sales tax is 6.25% and should be collected on all items with the exception of clothing or shoes less than $175. (For more info go to mass.gov!) Please be aware that a Covid-19 Safety Policy has not been confirmed for PCAC24 at this time. Payment will be expected at time of acceptance. Vendors who apply and pass criteria check after all booths have been filled up will be offered to join a waiting list. Exhibitors may cancel their table for a full refund up to 45 days before the convention. Exhibitors may still cancel their table within 30 days of the convention with the potential for a partial refund, decided on a case by case basis.
🍍 Important – Exhibitor Code of Conduct 🍍
Please be sure that your intended booth setup will fit within your space and is sturdy. Booth displays should not be higher than 8’ from the floor. Exhibitor Staff reserves the right to request takedown of displays deemed dangerous or unruly at the convention. Exhibitors found selling bootlegs, food or weapons of any kind at our event will be ejected from the Exhibitor Hall; no refunds or exceptions. Vendors may sell adult material at PCAC but must check customer IDs before allowing them to browse 18+ content and provide opaque bagging for 18+ sales. Attendees are prohibited from bringing food into the Exhibitor Hall, but vendors may eat and drink in their booth spaces. Exhibitors are expected to vacate the room in a timely fashion so that the room may be locked afterhours. PopCult Anime Con is not responsible for the personal safety or belongings or merchandise of exhibitors. A more detailed version of these points will be sent to accepted vendors closer to the convention, along with booth location assignments, hall hours and check-in information.
