FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
DEADLINE TO SIGN UP AS VENDOR:
Deadline to sign up as a vendor is March 15, 2010 or until all the spaces are filled. We sold out in 2008 so take advantage of the Early Bird special and register before February 1, 2010.
DEMOGRAPHICS:
The Cherry Blossom Festival was held in the city of Pasadena for 5 years with the last two at the Rose Bowl with 10,000 attendees. In 2007, the festival moved to the Little Tokyo district of Los Angeles and the estimated attendance was over 16,000. In 2008 we had over 30,000 attendees and in 2009, over 45,000 attendees.
VENDOR HANDBOOK:
Vendor’s who have signed up will received a Vendor Handbook via email or mail if you do not have email, which contains all the Set up/Tear down, Rules and Regulars, Checking in procedure, Security, and Informational Handbook, which should answer all questions you may have on who, what, why, and where of your role in the Festival. The Vendor Handbook will also be online so you can download the information at any time. The handbook will also contain names and contact information if you have any questions or issues. Once you have signed up and been accepted, you’ll receive the Vendor Handbook by March 15, 2010.
SECURITY:
The festival is being held in Parking Lot 7, which is located behind East West Players and where the Go For Broke Monument is located, as well as, 1st Street between San Pedro and Alameda in the Little Tokyo district of Los Angeles. We will have security personnel and extra security lighting on Saturday night – however, it will be up to each individual vendor how they wish to secure their space or if they wish to tear down and re-set up on Sunday.
COMMUNICATION: Since the entire Festival Production Team are all volunteers – the fastest means of communication is via email.
