About Red Acre Barn
This stunning barn is located just 15 minutes from West Des Moines off of I 35! The indoor scenery is breathtaking with reclaimed barn wood throughout. Lighting cascades the ceilings and has been home to thousands of weddings and special events since opening. The bar will be open! There will be holiday themed cocktails and the normal favorites all for purchase to spice up shoppers as they browse over 70 vendors. We are working with a local caterer to utilize the full kitchen at Red Acre Barn so shoppers and vendors can have several options for food. I will keep you posted on social media as we solidify details!
The Details
All vendor fees paid are non-refundable. We realize this is a winter show, that is why a two-day event is planned to ensure shoppers can choose which day is best for them to come.
Set Up
The market will be Saturday December 2nd 9am to 4pm and Sunday December 2rd 10am to 3pm. All vendors can set up either Friday December 1st 2pm to 5pm or Saturday December 2nd 7am to 8:30am. Please be in place ready to go at 8:45am. Parking for the event is located in the far spaces of gravel parking to allow for customers to access closer parking.
Tear Down
At the conclusion of the market on Sunday, please have all spaces cleared by 4:30pm. No early tear downs are permitted. We want to provide a great shopping experience for all guests.
Payment
All booth fees must be paid in full by September 30, 2023. Checks may be sent to:

Invoices are also available upon request.
What is Supplied
All 6’ x 4’ spaces will be supplied with one 6 ft table and 2 chairs. Please note: this vendor space is located upstairs and there are no elevators. We are working on a strategy to allow for shoppers that cannot climb steps to still be able to shop ALL the vendors! We are making space for a small kiosk of sorts so that they are able to see a sampling of products and we will work with you to bring a personalized shopping experience to them
All 10’ x 10’ spaces are supplied with 3- 6 ft tables and 2 chairs.
The groom room and the bride room will be provided with tables/chairs upon request. Both of these rooms are larger and would make a great space for a large clothing vendor. The bride’s room offers a single large bathroom that could be used for a fitting room. The groom’s room is also large, but does not have a bathroom. There is ample space however for a pop up fitting room.
Advertising
Red Acre Barn has graciously offered co-advertising of this event. They currently have over 5000 followers on Facebook and over 1,500 followers on Instagram. We will also deliver paid advertising to market this event. It is so important that each vendor share, share, and share again so that your followers can enjoy the opportunity to shop! Your photos will help us to share items available that buyers will want to…buy!
We have already gained significant interest on Social Media for the event and anticipate thousands of visitors over the weekend! See you soon..and in the meantime, reach me via email at bubolivehome@gmail.com.
