Description
Our 46th Annual Down Home Days Courthouse Show on Saturday, September 21st is now full. It is an outdoor show with over 100 craft, community, commercial, entertainment, kids' area, and food vendors. Hosted by the Mason Area Chamber of Commerce this show is one the whole family can enjoy. This show is free for shoppers and browsers!
We thank Granger Waste Services for bring our environmental sponsor and Ware's Pharamacy for being our entertainment sponsor! We also thank the City of Mason and Ingham County for their continued partnership with this event.
Vendor Information:
Down Home Days Courthouse Show is a non-juried vendor craft show, along with a limited number of non-duplicative manufactured item booths and some community booths. No electricity, tables or canopies are provided, only the 10'X10' area for the day. Vendors are required to setup 18 inches from the sidewalks to avoid sprinkler lines. No flooring is allowed. Free parking is available in the designated municipal lots. Vendors may NOT park all day in the two-hour street spaces!
Registrations for DHD will close Thursday, September 12th at 3pm unless the show sells out sooner. Our last show sold out six weeks in advance, so we suggest vendors register ASAP. Requests for Spring Fling Courthouse Show refunds will be honored, less a $10 handling fee until August 15, 2019.
Any vendor with a canopy larger than 10'x10' will need to obtain a building permit from the City of Mason. Two 10'x10' canopies placed next to each other do not require a building permit. Please direct all questions to the City of Mason, 517-676-9155.
This event is RAIN or SHINE.
