I think the Market fees depends on a lot of things. The best market I go to, the fees are $290, for a 10X10 space. We have music every week, as well as other events. It is well worth the money. Lots of advertising.

I know of another market, I don’t go to, that charges $600 for the same size space. I have never been to it. I would like to, but am afraid I can’t handle two super busy markets Saturday and then on Sunday. I am debating it, though.

The other markets average around $60 for a 10X10 space. Not much advertising, no music, or rarely music.

I have come to the conclusion that paying more, gives more. Music and entertainment adds to the Markets and brings in more customers. It also gives a check to the Market Manager and then they seem to care more about the Market.
