Hello API members!
Flatstock 80 will be taking place at the Pitchfork Music Festival in Chicago, July 15-17th, 2022 This is an outdoor event. We will be located in tents along the Eastern end of Washington Ave., in Union Park, as usual. This year the festival is requiring proof of vaccination or a negative Covid test within 72 hours of the festival. Vaccine verification by presenting your CDC white card vaccination record. They will check verification at the gates (this goes for all people in the park).
Registration will open May 27tth, at 2PM Central Standard Time. Registration is accessible to current API members only, and you must log on to www.americanposterinstitute.
The registration fee for a 10’ x 10' tent space is $450. The booth fee includes tent, table, chairs, and plastic netting to display your work.
This year we have allotted 44 10’ x 10' spaces. A limited number of doubles will be available to those who register and pay for 2 spaces first. Shared 10’ x 10' spaces are also available. If splitting a space, please indicate with whom, when you register.
PLEASE only register for Flatstock if you definitely plan on coming, and will be present in your tent for the full three days.
Registrations in excess of our 44 spaces will go on a wait list, in the order they are received.
You must have a festival pass or vendor credentials to enter the festival grounds and Flatstock.
Each 10’ x 10' single space includes vendor admission for TWO persons TOTAL (4 for a double), Friday-Saturday-Sunday. For shared single spaces each artist gets 1 pass. For you, only. Any other helpers need to buy a ticket.
Once you have registered you must return a signed contract, signed liability waiver, and payment no later than June 17th. Failure to do so will result in the forfeiture of your space.
