Introducing The Hampton Classic “Best In Show” Boutique Contest:
How It Works: All boutiques and vendors are automatically entered into the Hampton Classic “Best In Show” booth contest. The vendors must follow all strict guidelines provided in the Hampton Classic Boutique Vendor Information packet here. It’s time to get creative folks, but don’t go overboard… The best boutiques are the ones that display their merchandise in a planned and beautiful way to showcase the brand, but also allowing the customer to shop easily. The booth contest is not judged on the actual merchandise, but on the overall concept, design, and guidelines. It’s time to show off some of that #HamptonClassicStyle…
The Boutiques:
- Boutique Garden Booths – The Boutique Garden is conveniently located near the main grandstands and food service area and has entrances directly from the parking area and from the Hunter Rings and Stable Row. The minimum booth size is 12’ x 12’ but may be enlarged per 4’ increments.
- Stable Row Booths – The Stable Row booths run along the stabling area and are a prime location for equestrian products. The booth sizes are 15’ x 15’ or available as a double booth, 30’ x 15’.
- Stable Row Trailers / Displays – Stable Row (on the Hunter Ring side) can accommodate trailers, trucks, etc.
The Judges:
Samantha Yanks, Editor of Hamptons Magazine
Michael Grimm, Co-Owner of Bridgehampton Florist
The Prizes:
A 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place ribbon will be awarded to the booths on Tuesday August 26th, 2014.
A discount on the 2015 vendor fee will be provided for the winners. ($300 for 1st, $200 for 2nd, and $100 for 3rd)
