Vendor Application

In 2026, the City of Pickering has launched a singular vendor application form for consideration at all City-led festivals and events in 2026, excluding Petapolooza. This form ensures that vendors are aware of every opportunity available throughout the year, while providing clear timelines for application intake and response periods. 

To vend at Spring Fling, please complete the vendor application form by Monday, March 16, 2026. Selected vendors will be notified by Wednesday, March 25, 2026.

Photos and video may be recorded at this event by designated City photographers & videographers. These materials may be used in future City of Pickering education, advertising, and other internal/external promotions, without compensation.

Any questions related to the collection of this information should be directed to the City Clerk, One the Esplanade, Pickering, ON L1V 6K7, 905.420.4611.

For the safety of all attendees, we encourage any dogs that do not do well with people, crowds, loud noises, or other dogs to be left at home.

Please note, all dogs entering any City event must comply with the Responsible Pet Ownership By-law (6811/07) and the Dog Owners Liability Act.

Dogs that have characteristics similar to a Pit Bull (under the act) must wear a muzzle.
