Vendor Applications

CLOSED for 2026. Vendor space at Haunted Happenings is run by the Haunted Happenings Marketplace (Creative Collective), separately from the city-wide festival. As of the Marketplace's own update dated 2026-08-22: "The 2026 vendor lineup is complete for Salem Common, Derby Square, and Old Town Hall. We are not accepting additional applications for those locations at this time." One possible exception is flagged — a limited opportunity at Charlotte Forten Park MAY be announced later; nothing is open now and details would be posted separately. Already-accepted vendors get support at vendors@creativecollectivema.com. General enquiries go through the Marketplace inquiry form at hauntedhappeningsmarketplace.com/contact. Marketplace venues: Salem Common, Derby Square, Essex Street Pedestrian Mall, Old Town Hall.
