Four Corners Brewing Company is located just south of Downtown Dallas, conveniently near I-30, I-45, and I-35E.

Please navigate directly to the entrance to both of our parking lots at 1350 Browder St, Dallas, TX 75215. (Get directions).

You will need to enter the parking lots on the Browder St. side (between Griffin St and Belleview St) as we will be blocking off the Ervay/Orr St Entrance for the event. Please see the map below for details.

DART / Public Transportation:

‍The venue is located a 5 minute walk from Cedars Station on the DART Rail. Simply take the Red Line or Blue Line to Cedars Station. Via DART bus, take route 26 or 35.

1. Load-in begins at 10:00am. Please do not try to load in before then, as it helps our staff tremendously. (If you need more than 90 minutes to set up, please notify Harley by text or email prior to the event.)
2. You will park in the main (concrete) parking lot of the venue, and load into the event area from there. You are not allowed to idle in any of the lanes or enter the event area with your vehicle.
3. The first thing you will do is check in with our vendor coordinator, who will be set up at our box office tent outside. This allows us to keep track of who has arrived.
4. When you check in, we will give you a site map with your space highlighted. Use the map to find your space. All tables will be set up and labeled with their assigned space number. 10x10 spaces will be labeled with chalk on the ground.
5. Please only drop off your items at your space, then immediately move your car to the grass lot before you begin setting up your space.
6. Once you have parked in the grass lot, you may continue setting up.
7. Chairs: you may grab as many as you need from the stacks that are located around the venue.
8. Your space must be fully set up by 11:30am.
9. Promptly at 11:30am we will have a quick all-vendor meeting and take a group picture.
10. Between the vendor meeting until Noon when the market opens, we ask that you help promote the event by posting on your social media accounts (especially Instagram Stories and Facebook) showing off your setup and encouraging people to come shop. Also, if your car is still in the concrete lot, it MUST be moved to the grass lot (the concrete lot is for shoppers only). You can also use this time to ensure you are ready to make your first sales, check out other vendors, use the restroom, get a beer or water, take photos, etc.

• Sunset is around 5:30pm.
• We will be providing power to outside vendors ONLY from 4:00 to 6:00pm.
• This power will be limited to 200 watts per vendor and must only be used for lighting.
• We highly recommend LED lights because our power supply is limited and LED’s use less wattage.
• Please bring a minimum of 25 feet of cord to access the power.

‍You will be loading in up to 300 feet away from your space. We recommend packing your merchandise as easy-to-move as possible, utilizing boxes and containers. Dollies and carts are very helpful if you have lots of items to move.

Please prepare in advance for wind if your space is outside. There may be moderate to strong gusts of wind. The best way to shield yourself from wind is to purchase side panels for your booth. Otherwise, we recommend any light products on tables be weighted or taped down. You can also use crates and containers to hold your items. Also, ensure that your tent has adequate weights on each leg.

Make sure your phone and all devices are fully charged. Bring an external battery charger for your phone or iPad. You will not have access to power to charge devices.

Check all of your sales equipment (square readers, etc) and make sure they work!

If you accept payments via apps like Venmo and PayPal, it helps to create a sheet which lists your usernames/emails for these that you can quickly show to buyers during checkout.

If dealing in cash, make sure you have plenty of change.
