VENDORS
WHY BE A VENDOR?
Are you looking to get your company's products or services in front of hands-on DIY consumers and automotive professionals? The Coatesville Car Show is the perfect place to display your products and services! We are primarily looking for vendors that target the automotive enthusiast. Businesses dealing with engines, suspension, brakes, wheels & tires, pinstriping, accessories, and more. If you offer automotive parts, accessories, or an automotive service of some kind, our event is where you want to be.
Being a vendor at our car show allows you to directly market your products or services to a highly targeted audience of car enthusiasts, generating potential new customers by showcasing your brand and offerings to a large group of people passionate about automobiles, all while networking with other businesses and car owners in the community; essentially, it's a great opportunity to gain significant exposure within your niche market. We expect close to 300 vehicles and over 1,500 spectators the day of the show.
WILL YOU ALLOW OTHER NON-AUTOMOTIVE VENDORS?
Yes, on a case-by-case basis, we will assess and may allow other vendors to participate. Please keep in mind that our primary audience is made up largely of male and female baby-boomers. Not all, but we would estimate 85% fall into this category. We only mention this to help you assess whether or not our audience is a good fit for your product and/or service. Obviously we want you to have success when you attend our show, so we just ask that you consider if our show includes your target audience if you a not a car-related vendor. Businesses promoting safety products or education will be given first consideration.
DO YOU ALLOW FOOD VENDORS?
No, we do not allow food vendors and there is no exceptions to this rule. We have our own grill that we operate and the town has a restaurant and food store. Where food is concerned, our goal is to keep that business inside the town.
HOW DO I BECOME A VENDOR?
Follow the following steps:
1) To be a vendor at our event, we ask that you click the button at the bottom of this page. This will take you to the application page.
2) Please review the "Important Notes" at the top of the page.
3) If you agree with these notes, please continue to the online application form below the these notes.
4) Complete this form in it's entirety and submit your application for consideration.
5) Submitting a form does not mean you have been accepted as a vendor. It means that the application is under review.
6) You should have a response within one month or sooner from when you submit your application.
NOTE: Our review board meets the second Thursday of each month, so you will hear something within 72 hours of this meeting.
7) If approved, you will be sent a payment link that will give you the option to pay online or to mail a payment. All payments must
be received within two weeks of your application approval or the application will be cancelled.
We have this application review process in place in order to make sure we have a variety of vendors and can allocate spaces appropriately as we are very limited on booth space. Vendor spaces are on a first-come, first-served basis. If you have any questions at all, you can reach out to us on our "Contact Us" page.
NOTE: We do not accept any vendors after June 6th. This date is our application deadline date, no exceptions. This gives us time to run any final applications through our final review board in June.
NOTE: If you are not approved as a vendor, or would just like to place information into our goody bags, we will do that for you. Be it brochures, coupons, flyers, or any other item, we would just need to have these prior to July 1st. We put together 300 goody bags, so you would need to provide us a count of 300 items that you want placed in the bags.
