25 Sep October Show Set up info

In the words of Dr. Seuss-

Dear Dealers, One and All, Big and Small—

The West Palm Beach Antiques Festival is here,
October 3–5, so clap, cheer, and cheer!
We’ll gather again at the Fairgrounds so bright,
In East and West Expos—oh what a sight!

Set-Up Day (yes, that’s Thursday, the 2nd you know),
From 8 until 5, in you may go.
Through Gate Number 2 you’ll merrily drive,
To unload your treasures—antiques come alive!
Bike racks mark doors, the right ones to choose,
Park there too long? You might end up the news!
(A flogging? A fuss? Well perhaps just a glare,
But keep the lanes open, and all will be fair.)

Booth Numbers! Don’t worry, though digits may change,
Your square feet remain—not smaller, not strange.
A map and assignments—now here’s something neat!
You’ll get them on Wednesday, before load-in’s feat.

Tickets! Oh tickets! A marvelous thing,
With Eventbrite magic, your buyers take wing.
They’ll hop past the box office, quick as can be,
And land in your booth shouting, “Let’s shop, yippee!”
But Friday at 5, like a pumpkin with wheels,
The discount disappears—poof! That’s the deal.

So pack up your trunks, bring your best to the floor,
October is waiting with treasures galore.
We thank you, we cheer you, we can’t wait to see,
The magic you bring to our grand jamboree!

With Seussian flair and one twinkle-eyed grin,
Jon Jenkins
