It is the authority of Gum Pop Presents to close a market early or open a market late due to severe or inclement weather.

Summer evenings in Colorado often present a chance of inclement weather, but it is common that weather is brief or that the forecast changes. Vendors are expected to participate in their scheduled market unless otherwise notified. Gum Pop Presents monitors the forecast closely on market days and will always make decisions based on what's best for both vendors and attendees. Should Gum Pop Presents cancel a market due to weather, all participating vendors on that scheduled date will receive a refund for their per-date registration fee by the following Tuesday.

When rain chances are forecasted at 50% or higher during market hours per AccuWeather, vendors have the following options. Please note that in all cases, Gum Pop MUST be notified of your decision:

1) Prepare for the market as you always do and arrive at the site during scheduled load-in hours. Load-in may be delayed when there is rain in the forecast, but we will notify vendors in those instances. Management will advise on setup options when you arrive.

2) Vendors may wait it out and set up late but must notify the Gum Pop market coordinator via the Vendor Hotline.

3) Vendors may opt out of the market, but will not receive a Vendor Credit and will be subject to the $25 Late Cancellation Fee. Vendors must notify Gum Pop via the Vendor Hotline. Vendors that do not notify Gum Pop of their cancelation will be charged a $75 No Show Fee.
