Vendors Wanted

Join us for a Summer Market at the S.S. Sicamous. The market will be held every Thursday afternoon during the summer months, on the grass surrounding the Ship. We are looking for vendors with handmade crafts, wholesome foods or quality vintage goods.

Full Season and Half Season passes are available for extra value. Drop-In spaces will also be available on the day. The grass will be divided into lots, which can be reserved by season pass holders. Electricity is also available.

Lots come in two types: regular and high traffic zones. High traffic spaces are directly in front of the ship, so will be the first thing that people see.

Medium Traffic
Full Season $150.00
Half Season $90.00
Flex 4 Session $65.00
Drop -In $20.00
High Traffic
Full Season $200.00
Half Season $120.00

Drop -In $25.00

Electricity is $3 per market
