SECTION 1 — EVENT REGISTRATION AND PARTICIPATION
1.1 APPLICATION OF EVENT TERMS
By purchasing a vendor space and completing checkout or otherwise participating in an event hosted, promoted, organized, coordinated, or managed by Market 535 Events & Design LLC, you acknowledge and agree to all event-related provisions contained in these Terms once checkout is complete.
The person completing registration represents that they are authorized to enter into this agreement on behalf of the participating individual, business, organization, employees, contractors, representatives, assistants, and volunteers associated with the registration.
1.2 VENDOR APPROVAL
Submitting payment online does not guarantee acceptance into an event unless and until the registration is approved or confirmed by Market 535 Events & Design LLC.
We reserve the right to approve or deny an application or registration, subject to applicable law, based on legitimate event-planning considerations, including:
• Available space
• Vendor-category needs
• Excessive product duplication
• Event suitability
• Safety concerns
• Previous vendor conduct
• Compliance history
• Quality or appropriateness of merchandise
• Venue requirements
• The overall character and needs of the event
We may limit the number of vendors offering the same or similar merchandise. Efforts to reduce product duplication do not create vendor exclusivity unless Market 535 Events & Design LLC enters into a separate written exclusivity agreement.
1.3 VENDOR SPACES
Vendor spaces are assigned by Market 535 Events & Design LLC. Placement preferences may be considered but are not guaranteed.
We reserve the right to:
• Assign or reassign vendor locations
• Change booth numbers
• Modify the event layout
• Adjust booth dimensions when reasonably necessary
• Relocate a vendor before or during an event
• Move entrances, exits, activities, entertainment, or event features
• Make operational changes required for safety, accessibility, venue requirements, pedestrian flow, or the overall event
A change in booth location, surroundings, orientation, or event layout does not entitle a vendor to a refund, rollover, or credit.
Only one business may operate from each purchased vendor space unless Market 535 Events & Design LLC gives prior written approval.
Vendors may not sell, transfer, share, assign, or sublease their space.
1.4 SETUP, EVENT HOURS, AND BREAKDOWN
Vendors must follow all announced setup, unloading, parking, event-hour, and breakdown procedures.
Unless we provide written permission otherwise, vendors must:
• Arrive and complete setup during the designated setup period
• Remove vehicles from loading and restricted event areas by the stated deadline
• Remain fully set up and open during published event hours
• Refrain from packing, dismantling, or leaving early
• Remove all merchandise, displays, equipment, trash, and personal property following the event
Late arrival, early departure, unauthorized vehicle access, or failure to follow event instructions may result in removal from the event and denial of participation in future events without refund or rollover.
Vendors who need to leave before the scheduled event ending time must receive prior approval from Market 535 Events & Design LLC.
1.5 VENDOR EQUIPMENT AND DISPLAYS
Unless expressly stated otherwise, vendors are responsible for providing their own tents, canopies, tables, chairs, displays, weights, lighting, extension cords, equipment, supplies, and materials necessary for participation.
All tents, displays, signs, merchandise, equipment, and electrical connections must be:
• Properly secured
• Safely installed
• Maintained in good condition
• Contained within the assigned space
• Compliant with applicable fire, electrical, accessibility, venue, and safety requirements
• Capable of withstanding reasonably foreseeable outdoor conditions
Tent weights or another approved anchoring method may be required. Stakes may not be permitted at certain venues.
We may require a vendor to modify or remove any display, equipment, merchandise, sign, or condition that creates a safety concern, blocks access, interferes with another vendor, violates venue requirements, or materially disrupts the event.
SECTION 2 — ASSUMPTION OF RISK AND RELEASE OF LIABILITY
2.1 ASSUMPTION OF RISK
Participation in public and outdoor events involves inherent and other risks, including, without limitation:

This release includes claims involving personal injury, illness, death, property damage, theft, financial loss, business interruption, or other loss occurring before, during, or after an event, including during setup and breakdown.
This provision applies to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and is not intended to release any person or entity from liability that cannot legally be waived.

These obligations survive the conclusion of the event and termination of these Terms.
SECTION 4 — INSURANCE
Vendors and participants are responsible for maintaining insurance appropriate to their businesses, products, equipment, staff, and event activities.
Depending on the nature of the vendor’s operation, appropriate coverage may include:
• Commercial general liability insurance
• Product liability insurance
• Food or beverage liability insurance
• Automobile liability insurance
• Workers’ compensation insurance
• Property or equipment insurance
• Any coverage required by applicable law, the venue, or Market 535 Events & Design LLC
Proof of insurance may be requested before or during an event.
We may require that Market 535 Events & Design LLC, the venue, or another event partner be listed as an additional insured when reasonably necessary.
Failure to provide requested proof of insurance or comply with an insurance requirement may result in denial or removal from the event without refund or rollover.
Market 535 Events & Design LLC does not represent or guarantee that a vendor’s insurance is sufficient. Determining and maintaining appropriate coverage is the vendor’s sole responsibility.
SECTION 5 — SALES TAX, PERMITS, LICENSES, AND LEGAL COMPLIANCE
5.1 VENDOR RESPONSIBILITY
Each vendor is solely responsible for identifying, obtaining, maintaining, renewing, and displaying all registrations, permits, licenses, certifications, approvals, and insurance required for the vendor’s business, merchandise, food, beverages, services, and event participation.
Acceptance into an event does not constitute a representation by Market 535 Events & Design LLC that a vendor has satisfied all legal requirements.
Market 535 Events & Design LLC is not a taxing, licensing, legal, accounting, health, or regulatory authority and does not provide legal, tax, food-safety, licensing, or accounting advice.
5.2 SALES TAX
Vendors are solely responsible for:
• Determining whether their products or services are taxable
• Obtaining a Texas Sales and Use Tax Permit or other registration when required
• Displaying permits when required
• Collecting the correct state and local sales tax
• Maintaining required records
• Filing required reports
• Remitting taxes to the proper governmental authority
Market 535 Events & Design LLC does not collect, report, or remit sales tax on behalf of individual vendors unless expressly required by law or agreed to in a separate written agreement.
Upon request, vendors must provide evidence of sales-tax registration or other documentation reasonably related to event compliance.
Failure to comply with applicable tax requirements may result in denial of participation, removal from an event, or denial of future registrations without refund or rollover.
5.3 FOOD AND BEVERAGE VENDORS
Vendors selling, sampling, preparing, serving, or distributing food, beverages, or other consumable products must comply with all applicable federal, state, county, municipal, venue, and regulatory requirements.
Depending on the operation, these requirements may include:
• Temporary food-establishment permits
• Mobile food-vendor permits
• Cottage-food requirements
• Food-handler training or certification
• Certified food-manager requirements
• Commissary requirements
• Health-authority approval
• Preparation and sanitation standards
• Labeling and allergen disclosures
• Time and temperature controls
• Handwashing facilities
• Fire-safety approval
• Insurance
• Other applicable permits or certifications
Because requirements vary by product, preparation method, location, and regulatory authority, each vendor is responsible for confirming what applies to its operation.
Proof of permits, certifications, licenses, insurance, or inspection approval may be requested before or during the event.
A vendor that fails to provide required documentation or operates in violation of applicable food-safety or health requirements may be denied participation or removed without refund or rollover.
5.4 OTHER REGULATED PRODUCTS AND ACTIVITIES
Vendors offering specially regulated products or services, including alcohol, plants, animals, cosmetics, body-care products, professional services, raffles, games of chance, or similar activities, are solely responsible for obtaining all required permits, approvals, certifications, licenses, and insurance.
Alcohol may not be sold, served, sampled, or distributed without prior written authorization from Market 535 Events & Design LLC and full compliance with all applicable Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission, venue, and legal requirements.
SECTION 6 — PRODUCTS, SERVICES, AND VENDOR CONDUCT
6.1 AUTHORIZED PRODUCTS
Vendors may sell, display, sample, or promote only those products and services identified in their approved application unless prior written permission is obtained.
We may prohibit or require the removal of merchandise or services that are:
• Illegal
• Unsafe
• Recalled
• Counterfeit
• Infringing
• Misleading
• Materially different from what was approved
• Inappropriate for the event
• Prohibited by the venue
• Inconsistent with the event’s character
• Likely to create a safety, reputational, or operational concern
6.2 PRODUCT AUTHENTICITY AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
Vendors represent that they have the legal right to sell, display, distribute, or promote all merchandise, artwork, photographs, logos, designs, names, music, branded products, and other materials used in connection with their participation.
Counterfeit, stolen, pirated, unauthorized, or infringing merchandise is prohibited.
We may remove a vendor or product in response to a credible infringement complaint or other reasonable legal concern without assuming responsibility for determining final ownership rights.
6.3 PROFESSIONAL CONDUCT
Vendors and their representatives must act professionally and respectfully toward attendees, other vendors, venue personnel, sponsors, partners, volunteers, and Market 535 Events & Design LLC staff.
The following conduct may result in immediate removal without refund or rollover:
• Harassment
• Threats
• Abusive or disruptive conduct
• Fighting
• Unsafe conduct
• Public intoxication
• Unlawful drug use
• Unlawful discrimination
• Repeated failure to follow instructions
• Intentional interference with another vendor
• Unauthorized solicitation
• Misrepresentation of products, qualifications, or credentials
• Conduct that materially harms the safety, reputation, or operation of the event
Market 535 Events & Design LLC has final authority over event operations and may require a vendor, representative, product, display, vehicle, or activity to leave when reasonably necessary to protect safety, follow venue requirements, or preserve the event environment.
6.4 CHILDREN AND ANIMALS
Vendors are responsible for supervising minors accompanying them. Minors may not be left unattended or allowed to interfere with event operations.
Animals may be brought only when permitted by venue and event rules. Service animals will be accommodated as required by law.
Vendors are responsible for the control, supervision, behavior, waste removal, and any injury or damage caused by an animal under their control.
SECTION 7 — WEATHER, EVENT CHANGES, CANCELLATION, AND FORCE MAJEURE
7.1 EVENT CHANGES
Market 535 Events & Design LLC reserves the right to postpone, reschedule, relocate, shorten, extend, modify, suspend, or cancel an event when reasonably necessary.
Reasons may include, without limitation:
• Severe or unsafe weather
• Flooding
• Lightning
• High winds

• Fire
• Natural disaster

• Governmental orders
• Civil disturbance
• Security threats
• Utility failure
• Venue problems
• Road closures
• Construction
• Venue acts or omissions
• Circumstances beyond our reasonable control
• Other conditions affecting safety or event feasibility
7.2 RAIN-OR-SHINE EVENTS
Market 535 events are outdoor, rain-or-shine events unless Market 535 Events & Design LLC announces otherwise.
An event may proceed during rain, heat, cold, wind, or other ordinary weather conditions.
Market 535 Events & Design LLC has sole authority to determine whether an event will proceed, be delayed, modified, relocated, suspended, rescheduled, or canceled.
A vendor’s personal decision not to attend, set up, remain at, or complete an event because of weather, anticipated weather, travel concerns, expected attendance, or personal preference does not entitle the vendor to a refund or automatic rollover.
Rollover eligibility remains subject to the written-notice requirements and other limitations stated in these Terms.
7.3 FORCE MAJEURE
Market 535 Events & Design LLC shall not be considered in breach of these Terms or held liable for delay, relocation, modification, interruption, postponement, suspension, cancellation, or nonperformance caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control.
These circumstances may include acts of God, weather events, natural disasters, epidemics, pandemics, governmental actions, war, terrorism, civil unrest, labor disputes, utility failures, venue closures, transportation disruptions, public-safety emergencies, or similar events.
7.4 NO REFUNDS; EVENT CANCELLATION AND ROLLOVER CREDITS
ALL VENDOR-SPACE FEES, SPONSORSHIP FEES, REGISTRATION FEES, AND OTHER EVENT-RELATED PAYMENTS ARE NONREFUNDABLE.
MARKET 535 EVENTS & DESIGN LLC DOES NOT ISSUE CASH REFUNDS FOR EVENT REGISTRATIONS.
If unavoidable circumstances require Market 535 Events & Design LLC to cancel an event, paid vendor registrations will be rolled over as a credit toward another eligible Market 535 event selected by the vendor within the same calendar year.
The following conditions apply to all rollovers:
1. A rollover is an event credit only and has no cash value.
2. A rollover may not be redeemed or exchanged for money.
3. A rollover must be used during the same calendar year in which the original event was scheduled.
4. Any unused rollover expires at the end of that calendar year.
5. A rollover is subject to availability at the requested future event.
6. A rollover does not guarantee the same booth location, booth size, category, event type, surroundings, or pricing.
7. If the selected future space costs more than the available rollover amount, the vendor must pay the difference.
8. Unless otherwise approved in writing, unused portions of a rollover are forfeited.
9. No more than two consecutive rollovers are permitted.
10. A rollover may not be sold, assigned, transferred, or given to another vendor or business without prior written approval.
11. A rollover applies only to the original registered vendor and approved business.
12. Once a registration has reached the maximum of two consecutive rollovers, the registration and related payment are forfeited if the vendor does not participate in the next scheduled event.
When an event proceeds as scheduled, including during rain or other ordinary weather, no refund or automatic rollover will be provided.
If an event begins and is later delayed, modified, shortened, suspended, relocated, or closed because of weather, safety concerns, venue instructions, governmental action, or circumstances beyond our reasonable control, no refund will be issued.
Market 535 Events & Design LLC may determine whether a rollover or other reasonable accommodation is appropriate following an event interruption, but no accommodation is guaranteed unless expressly stated in writing.
An eligible rollover is the vendor’s sole and exclusive remedy for an event canceled by Market 535 Events & Design LLC.
SECTION 8 — VENDOR CANCELLATIONS, PAYMENTS, AND CHARGEBACKS
8.1 VENDOR CANCELLATIONS AND SEVEN-DAY WRITTEN NOTICE
ALL VENDOR REGISTRATIONS AND EVENT-RELATED PAYMENTS ARE NONREFUNDABLE.
A paid vendor who cannot attend an event may request a rollover by providing Market 535 Events & Design LLC with written cancellation notice at least seven full calendar days before the scheduled event date.
Written cancellation notice must be received by Market 535 Events & Design LLC no later than seven calendar days before the event.
Notice received fewer than seven calendar days before the event does not qualify for a rollover.
Written notice must be submitted by email to:
Events@Market535.com
Market 535 Events & Design LLC may designate another written cancellation method for a particular event.
A social-media comment, public post, message to an event partner, message to another vendor, verbal statement, telephone conversation, or communication with venue personnel does not constitute valid written notice unless Market 535 Events & Design LLC confirms its acceptance in writing.
A qualifying vendor cancellation will receive a credit toward an eligible future Market 535 event within the same calendar year, subject to availability and all rollover restrictions contained in Section 7.4.
If cancellation notice is not received within the required timeframe, the vendor will be considered a no-show.
The registration fee will be forfeited, is nontransferable, and will not roll over to another event.
No refund or rollover will be provided when a vendor:
• Cancels fewer than seven calendar days before the event
• Fails to attend
• Arrives but chooses not to set up
• Leaves before the scheduled event ending time without prior approval
• Fails to obtain required permits, licenses, certifications, insurance, equipment, staff, or inventory
• Is removed for misconduct, unsafe conduct, or violation of event rules
• Is unable to participate because of transportation, staffing, scheduling, illness, personal emergency, or another individual circumstance without timely written notice
• Attempts to transfer or share the space without approval
• Fails to follow the cancellation procedure stated in these Terms
Market 535 Events & Design LLC will determine rollover eligibility based on compliance with this policy.
A previous exception, accommodation, or approval does not create an obligation to grant a future exception.
8.2 PAYMENT AND REGISTRATION COMPLETION
Registration is not complete until all required fees have been paid and the registration has been accepted or confirmed by Market 535 Events & Design LLC.
Unpaid, incomplete, declined, reversed, or unconfirmed registrations may be canceled or released without notice.
8.3 CHARGEBACKS AND PAYMENT DISPUTES
Before initiating a chargeback or payment dispute, you agree to contact Market 535 Events & Design LLC and make a good-faith effort to resolve the matter.
By completing checkout, you acknowledge and accept that event-related payments are nonrefundable and that qualifying cancellations are handled through rollover credits under the written policy stated in these Terms.
Initiating a chargeback for a valid, authorized transaction or properly disclosed nonrefundable registration may result in:
• Cancellation of current registrations
• Forfeiture of rollover eligibility
• Denial of future participation
• Recovery of chargeback fees or other amounts permitted by law
• Collection efforts
• Pursuit of other lawful remedies
Nothing in this section limits any legal rights that cannot be waived.
SECTION 9 — NO GUARANTEE OF ATTENDANCE, SALES, OR RESULTS
Market 535 Events & Design LLC may advertise, promote, organize, and operate events using methods we consider appropriate.
However, we do not guarantee:
• A particular number of attendees
• Customer demographics
• Event traffic
• Weather conditions
• Vendor placement
• Visibility
• Media exposure
• Social-media reach
• Product sales
• Profitability
• Customer interest
• Vendor exclusivity
• Repeat business
• Any particular commercial result
Vendor fees purchase the opportunity to participate in an event. They do not purchase or guarantee a particular level of sales, attendance, profit, traffic, exposure, or customer interest.
Dissatisfaction with sales, attendance, traffic, weather, booth location, nearby vendors, product duplication, or business performance does not entitle a vendor to a refund or rollover.
SECTION 10 — PHOTOGRAPHY, VIDEO, AND PROMOTIONAL USE
Events may be photographed, filmed, recorded, livestreamed, or otherwise documented by Market 535 Events & Design LLC, event partners, sponsors, contractors, media representatives, venue representatives, or attendees.

• Your booth
• Your signage
• Your products
• Your displays
• Your business name
• Trademarks displayed at the event
• Your event activities
We may use these materials for lawful promotional, advertising, editorial, informational, archival, social-media, website, print, sponsorship, and event-marketing purposes without additional notice or compensation.
This permission does not transfer ownership of the vendor’s underlying trademarks, product designs, or copyrighted works.
Vendors are responsible for obtaining any required permission from their employees, contractors, representatives, helpers, models, or guests.
Market 535 Events & Design LLC does not guarantee that every vendor will be photographed, featured, tagged, credited, or included in promotional material.

We do not guarantee, represent, or warrant that use of the website or Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free.
We do not warrant that results obtained through the Service will always be accurate or reliable.
We may suspend, remove, or discontinue the Service or portions of it from time to time without notice.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, your use of the Service is at your sole risk.
Except as expressly stated by us or required by law, the Service and all products, services, registrations, and information provided through the Service are offered “as is” and “as available,” without express or implied warranties or conditions, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, durability, title, and noninfringement.
Nothing in these Terms excludes warranties or rights that cannot legally be excluded.
SECTION 24 — LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Market 535 Events & Design LLC and its owners, members, managers, officers, employees, affiliates, agents, contractors, volunteers, suppliers, sponsors, service providers, venue partners, and licensors shall not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, punitive, or consequential damages arising from or relating to:
• Use of or inability to use the Service
• Attendance at or participation in an event
• Products or services obtained through the Service
• Lost profits
• Lost revenue
• Lost savings
• Loss of data
• Business interruption
• Loss of opportunity
• Reputational damage
• Replacement costs
• Attendance levels
• Vendor sales
• Weather
• Event modification, delay, interruption, or cancellation
• Errors or omissions in content
This limitation applies whether a claim is based in contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, statute, or another legal theory, even if advised of the possibility of damages.
To the extent liability cannot legally be excluded, the total aggregate liability of Market 535 Events & Design LLC arising from a particular transaction, registration, or event shall not exceed the amount paid directly to Market 535 Events & Design LLC for the product, service, registration, sponsorship, or event giving rise to the claim, except where a different limitation is required by law.
Because certain jurisdictions do not permit some exclusions or limitations, liability in those jurisdictions shall be limited to the fullest extent permitted by law.
SECTION 25 — GENERAL INDEMNIFICATION
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Market 535 Events & Design LLC and its owners, members, managers, officers, employees, affiliates, partners, agents, contractors, licensors, service providers, subcontractors, suppliers, volunteers, sponsors, venue partners, and representatives from claims, demands, losses, liabilities, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of or relating to:
• Your breach of these Terms
• Your violation of an incorporated policy or event rule
• Your violation of applicable law
• Your violation of another party’s rights
• Your misuse of the website or Service
• Content, products, materials, food, beverages, or services you submit, sell, display, distribute, or provide
SECTION 26 — SEVERABILITY
If any provision of these Terms is determined to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Any unenforceable portion shall be deemed severed, and the determination shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions.
SECTION 27 — TERMINATION
Obligations and liabilities incurred before termination shall survive termination when their nature requires survival.
These Terms remain effective unless terminated by you or us.
You may terminate your use of the Service by ceasing to use the website and notifying us that you no longer wish to use the Service.
If, in our reasonable judgment, you fail or appear to have failed to comply with these Terms, we may suspend or terminate access, cancel registrations or orders, deny participation, or remove you from an event.
You remain responsible for all amounts due through the date of termination.
Termination, suspension, denial, or removal due to your conduct or noncompliance does not entitle you to a refund or rollover.
Sections concerning payment obligations, assumption of risk, releases, indemnification, intellectual property, limitations of liability, governing law, and other provisions that by their nature should survive shall remain effective after termination.
SECTION 28 — ENTIRE AGREEMENT
Our failure to exercise or enforce a right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that right or provision.
These Terms, together with all policies, vendor guidelines, event rules, product descriptions, registration requirements, and operating instructions posted by us or incorporated by reference, constitute the entire agreement between you and Market 535 Events & Design LLC concerning your use of the Service and participation in events.
They supersede prior or contemporaneous oral or written communications, proposals, representations, and agreements concerning the same subject matter.
A waiver or modification is binding only when made in writing by an authorized representative of Market 535 Events & Design LLC.
SECTION 29 — CONFLICTING OR EVENT-SPECIFIC POLICIES
Additional terms may apply to a particular event, venue, product, sponsorship, promotion, or registration.
When an event-specific written policy directly conflicts with these general Terms, the event-specific policy will control solely with respect to that event or transaction.
Instructions communicated by Market 535 Events & Design LLC staff for immediate safety or operational reasons must be followed even when they are not expressly stated in these Terms.
No event-specific language shall be interpreted to create a right to a cash refund unless Market 535 Events & Design LLC expressly agrees to that refund in a separate written document.
SECTION 30 — ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS AND AGREEMENT
You consent to receive transaction-related communications electronically, including through email, text message, the website, registration software, or other contact information you provide.
Electronic records, submitted applications, checkout confirmations, checked agreement boxes, digital signatures, and online payments may be used as evidence of your acceptance of these Terms.
By checking an agreement box, submitting an application, completing payment, or participating in an event, you confirm that:
• You have had an opportunity to read these Terms
• You understand and accept them
• The information you provided is accurate
• You are authorized to agree on behalf of the registered business or organization
Marketing communications remain subject to applicable consent and opt-out requirements.
SECTION 31 — GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE
These Terms and any separate agreement through which Market 535 Events & Design LLC provides products, services, registrations, vendor spaces, or sponsorship opportunities shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
To the extent permitted by law, any lawsuit or legal proceeding arising out of or relating to these Terms, the website, the Service, or participation in an event shall be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction located in Liberty County, Texas.
Each party consents to the personal jurisdiction and venue of those courts.
Nothing in this section prevents either party from bringing an eligible matter in small-claims court or seeking immediate injunctive relief when legally appropriate.
SECTION 32 — CHANGES TO THESE TERMS
You may review the most current version of these Terms at any time on this page.
We reserve the right, at our discretion, to update, revise, change, or replace any portion of these Terms by posting changes to the website.
It is your responsibility to review the website periodically.
Your continued use of the website or Service, purchase of a product or registration, or participation in an event after revised Terms are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms to the extent permitted by law.
Changes will not retroactively alter completed transactions when doing so would violate applicable law.
