Layout: The layout of this event has dramatically changed and the event will be bigger than ever. You will be able to choose your location based on your price point and the order in which your complete application is turned in.
Power: We will do everything we can to make sure your power is up and running during event hours. However power is provided by generators, which come with complications. Please be patient and understand that outages may occur as everyone initially turns on their appliances and lights at the beginning of the event. Additional power is available for $50 per outlet (each outlet not to exceed 15 amps). Be prepared with a 50 ft. extension cord. Please do not bring an extension cord longer than 50 feet. If you use additional power not outlined on your application your deposit will be used as compensation for the additional usage. The outlets provided are standard three prong outlets. You will need to provide your own adapter if you require it. In order for the event to run smoothly and the entire system to be sized accordingly, please present your individual power needs as soon as possible (voltage and amperage). Staff will be monitoring power usage throughout the event to ensure compliance. Power is only available during open hours. Please note, heat will not be left on overnight. Any products susceptible to freezing should not be left overnight. Please list all appliances and amps at the end of this application.
Security: Security will be provided overnight from 6pm Thursday to 9am Friday, 8pm Friday to 9am Saturday and 8pm Saturday to 9am Sunday. Oregon WinterFest is not responsible for lost or stolen goods.
Trash: Dumpsters are located in the gravel lot near the Hampton Inn and Suites. You are responsible to take your trash to these dumpsters. Do not use roll carts for your trash. They are intended for festival attendee use. Grey water tanks are also available near the dumpsters. Anyone caught dumping grey water down storm drains will immediately lose their deposit.
VIP Gift Bags: This is an excellent way to market and brand yourself in the community. A $100 payment will provide you access to product/coupon/flyer placement in the VIP Gift Bag. 50 units are required and due to the Lay It Out Events office by January 15th.
