Important Information for Accepted Exhibitors
All 2025 Vendors:
Shuttle service will be provided to our vendors and attendees, from Wellesley High School to Babson College parking lot on the day of the event.
Food/Edibles Vendors:
If you are accepted, you will need to email us a copy of the license from the town or state that permits you to prepare/sell food. We use this to apply for a temporary food permit from the Wellesley Health Dept. on behalf of all edible/food vendors at Marketplace. Like most towns, Wellesley requires vendors at farmers markers and fairs to obtain a temporary permit. The health department allows our club to apply for a single permit on behalf of all food vendors and provide copies of the licenses. Feel free to contact marketplace@gmail.com if you have questions.
How Wellesley Marketplace Is Different From Other Boston-Area Holiday Markets:
Wellesley Marketplace is more than just a holiday market—it’s a fundraiser that makes a real difference in the Boston MetroWest community. As an all-woman volunteer organization, we are dedicated to supporting local initiatives that provide education, enrichment, and essential services, with a focus on women, children, and seniors. Additionally, we raise significant scholarship funds for deserving high school students to pursue their college dreams.
Community Impact:
- 100% of Proceeds: All booth fees, ticket sales, and additional funds raised are used to support local programs and scholarships.
- Scholarships: We annually award between $60,000 and $70,000 in scholarships to help students achieve their educational goals.
- Grants: We also provide grants to community groups addressing critical issues like mental health, hunger, and access to education.
