Q: What is the process for breaking down after the DIY Festival?
All exhibitors will be provided with detailed instructions and assigned a specific time for loading out after the DIY Festival. There are hundreds of exhibitors on the DIY Festival grounds, so load-out times and instructions MUST be followed in order to ensure the safety of all participants.
No vehicles are allowed on the Festival grounds in the evening on Friday, August 13. Two-day exhibitors will load-out from the Festival grounds during a specific time slot after 9 p.m. on Saturday, August 14. Full-weekend and Sunday-only outdoor exhibitors will load-out from the Festival grounds during an assigned time after 7 p.m. on Sunday evening, and indoor Sunday-only and full-weekend exhibitors will begin loading out during assigned times beginning at 8 p.m on Sunday, August 15.
Q: How do I pay my sales taxes?
Sales taxes for items sold during the festival are required to be paid separately as the festival qualifies as a special one-time event. The Utah State Tax Commission will send tax forms to you about a week after the festival. You must complete these forms and file sales taxes on your sales in order to participate each year. Contact your financial advisor with questions or for advice. You can also contact the special events division of the Utah State Tax Commission:

Q: How do I provide feedback about my festival experience?
Craft Lake City will send out a survey to exhibitors to collect information about your festival experience. And you can always send a message to artisancoordinator@craftlakecity.com with any additional feedback! Thank you!
