In 2014, they the 2nd annual Japan Film Festival of San Francisco, a ramen festival, Japanese fine sake, and J-POP LIVE at UNION SQUARE bringing a huge outdoor live concert to downtown San Francisco.

Are other spaces available for vendors? 
No. All designers, makers and commercial vendors are restricted to the same footprint at J-POP SUMMIT Festival 2016. All other spaces are for commercial sponsors and programmatic purposes.

Can I reserve more than one booth space? 
We will only consider requests on a case by case basis. Please indicate your interest in the application and SF Bazaar will follow up with finalizing payment for two spaces upon approval.

Where are SF Bazaar vendors located in the venue? 

SF Bazaar pop up marketplace will be conveniently placed outside at the entrance of the ticketed areas of J-POP Festival. This means that ALL foot traffic will pass by our booths in order to proceed to the ticketed area and you also will benefit from the general public who are visiting Fort Mason that weekend!

Will there be music/live performances? 
There will be music playing throughout the day with occasional programs like fashion shows and speakers. But all live music performances are scheduled indoors. We collected feedback from 2015 and being inside the pavilion only led to issues with speaking with your customers. The 2016 location has solved this issue!

Is internet access available? 
Unfortunately we cannot offer wifi at this time, but we find most vendors are able to accept payments through mobile processing services.

What is your refund policy? 
SF Bazaar sets its refund policy differently for each show based on the policies of our venue/partners. If a vendor requests to withdraw from J-POP SUMMIT  before June 22nd 2016, they will be refunded 90% of the vendor fee. No refunds will be issued after the deadline of June 22nd 2016. J-POP SUMMIT reserves the right to cancel the SF Bazaar Marketplace at any time. If a cancellation occurs, the vendor will receive 100% of their vendor fee back.
