Want to become an exhibitor or organise a programme?
You can organise a different kind of programme at the event. The programme is free of charge and can take place inside or outside the Navetta. Just contact us and we will plan the location and time of the programme together!
You can sell your harvest products, crafts, food or even flea market items at the event. There is no limit to the number of outdoor exhibitors, and the area can easily accommodate up to 100 exhibitors. Indoors, there are a limited number of selling spaces, so in order to get as many people as possible inside, each seller has one table. The table size is 180cmx70cm.
Prices
- The outdoor sales space with your own equipment (e.g. table, tent or trailer) is free of charge.
- Outdoor table space 10€ incl. table rental, delivery and assembly at the selling place.
- Tent pitch outside 20€ including tent and table rental, delivery and pile up the tent at the sales site (note: there are a limited number of tents, so there may not be enough for everyone so the organiser may ask you to share a tent with another seller)
- Table space indoors 20€ incl. table rental, delivery and assembly at the selling place
- There is a separate charge for the electric pitch
To reserve a sales space, please send an email to kati.lipponen@nurmes.fi by 30 September and tell us what you are selling, what kind of space you would like, or if you would like to organise a programme.
The event is organised by Hyvärilä Youth and Tourism Centre.
