 Sponsor FAQs

  • Simple. Pay here! In rare instances, we may reject sponsorships that do not align with our mission. In the unusual event we reject your sponsorship, we will refund your donation.

  • Your sponsorship will take effect within one month of your donation. Most sponsorships, however, will start taking effect within 1-2 weeks. Please email us at stlveganmarket@gmail.com if you need us to expedite the process.

  • We outlined some of the perks of becoming an official STL Vegan Market sponsor on this webpage under “Sponsorship levels.” Benefits include social media shout-outs, inclusion on our website, and ads in our event programs. Depending our your sponsorship level, you may also have access to free booth space, inclusion on our posters, and special recognition, both on and offline.

  • Benefits include the perks discussed above, in addition to other perks not explicitly enumerated and some that we plan to add later on. The biggest benefit, however, is building a thriving community that prioritizes the wellbeing of people, animals, and the planet. You can help us build a humane economy where animals no longer suffer and die for profit. That is a reward in and of itself!

  • STL Vegan Market is now the most advertised and attended vegan event in St. Louis. But unlike most vegan festivals, STL Vegan Market happens every month, from April through October! This means you can build sustained engagement from month to month without having a huge falloff after a single one-day event. We also have 6,000 followers we can advertise to, with our market reaching over 200,000 people and attracting over 5,000 attendees in 2024. This amount of publicity in the vegan space is hard to come by!

  • You absolutely can! As long as you only sell vegan goods and your business aligns with our values of compassion, sustainability, and ethical living, you are welcome to vend at STL Vegan Market. If you donate $100 or more per market ($700 or more per season), you will receive one free booth space. You will also receive preferential placement at our markets in recognition of your generosity. Apply to vend here.

  • There are many ways to support the market! You can share our event pages, invite friends, and spend heartily while you’re at the market. The biggest way to help us, however, is to invest in our market with a monetary donation or sponsorship. Donations and sponsorships help us sustain and grow the market.
