Artists keep all sales income from the show. Load-in is available Friday evening and Saturday morning, with artists able to drive near their booth space to unload. Amdur Productions staff provides on-site support throughout the festival, including booth sitting, setup and take-down assistance (fees apply), and overnight security. Equipment rental options include tents, weights, tables, and chairs. Limited pro-panel walls are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Amdur Productions assists with artist parking at discounted rates and hotel room discounts at local properties. Awards are bestowed at the festival.
