How to Use This Template

This checklist is specifically for festival and multi-day market events where setup is more involved than a standard pitch. It covers site arrival and check-in procedures, pitch marking and levelling, power connection and testing, water supply hookup, waste and grey water setup, signage and menu boards, security arrangements for overnight stays, stock management across multiple days, and breakdown procedure.

Start filling it in when you receive the event pack from the organiser. Note your plot number, arrival window, power allocation (amps, single or three-phase), and any site rules about generators, music, or trading hours. On arrival, work through the setup section systematically rather than rushing to get the hatch open.

Festivals have tighter rules and more variables than regular markets — site passes, vehicle movement curfews, noise limits after hours, and shared facilities. This checklist means you don't miss something critical in the chaos of a hundred vendors all arriving at the same gate. It's also invaluable for training staff who haven't done a festival setup before.
