It may not be possible to get away for lunch, but we'll bring it to you...just enough to get you through the day. Includes a basic sandwich, chips, fruit, and bottled water. It's not fancy, and you can certainly find cheaper options, but it's hassle free, and we'll bring it right to your booth. Lunches provided by the DoubleTree.
In consideration for being permitted to participate at the Tiki Kon annual event as a product vendor or exhibitor, you agree to indemnify, save and hold harmless Sandy Bottom Productions LLC, the Tiki Kon event organizers and principals, and the Doubletree Hotel and its holding company, from any and all claims which may occur to you or your property property from any cause whatsoever, or any and all claims from a person(s) purchasing or evaluating your goods or services.
You agree to comply with all directions of Tiki Kon staff, including but not limited to compliance with load in/out times, observance of booth space limitations and fire codes, and removal of any products from the vending floor that are deemed offensive, disruptive, or are mis-represented in the vendor application. You agree to comply with any rules or operating procedures as Sandy Bottom Productions LLC or event staff may reasonably require for the orderly and timely setup, performance and dismantling of the vending area. You also agree to comply with hotel policies, local and state laws, and the Hold Harmless Agreement.
Tiki Kon and Sandy Bottom Productions LLC shall have full power in the interpretation and enforcement of all rules and regulations contained in the Vendor Kit and this agreement, and the power to make such reasonable amendments thereto and such further rules and regulations as it shall consider necessary for the proper conduct of the Tiki Kon annual event.
You agree to offer primarily only products listed in your vendor application. Product types not listed may not comprise more than 5% of your inventory. For example, a vendor of ceramic art may also have a couple of vintage shirts they want to sell. Unless they are listed in the application, no more than 5% of the vendor’s inventory may be vintage shirts. Final determination of such shall be made by the Vendor Coordinators, and you will be asked to remove any violating inventory from the sales floor on the day of show. This is done to avoid over-saturation of product types.
Applications will be approved by a panel of event organizers based on relevance, to event themes, quality, uniqueness, presentation, and history with Tiki Kon. All decisions by event coordinators are subjective and final. We reserve the right to reject vendor applications and refund fees for any reason.
If you are approved as a vendor, we'll send a QuickBooks invoice which may be paid online using a bank account or credit card. Payment must be made within 30 days or your space may be forfeit. If you need additional time or an alternate payment method, please contact us at vendors@tikikon.com.
You may request cancellation until midnight on May 5 to receive a full refund. After that, cancellations are subject to a 25% service fee. Vendor fees and weekend passes are non-refundable after June 21.
You agree to not defame, bring into disrepute, or otherwise damage the name, goodwill, or property of Tiki Kon, Sandy Bottom Productions LLC, the DoubleTree hotel, any and all event guests, vendors, artists, or sponsors, and to handle any conflicts professionally and in private. You further agree to not bring complaints of plagiarism without actionable evidence and irrefutable proof of your copyright ownership and of violations against that copyright. You acknowledge that Tiki Kon is a neutral third party and neither trained in intellectual property law nor willing to make judgement calls on the validity of such claims unless they are irrefutable. You are expected to provide the highest levels customer service and integrity when dealing with the general public, other vendors, and event organizers.
Each approved vendor application includes 1 complimentary Standard Weekend Pass. Additional discounted passes may be requested in your application and included in your vendor fees. If you wish to attend with a Deluxe or Super Weekend Pass, you will need to purchase those when they go on sale to the general public on March 15, at 6:00 PM Pacific. After purchase, Tiki Kon will refund the difference.
