GENERAL INFORMATION
SPACE
The booths will measure 10’ X 10’ and will be located along Sainte-Catherine Street between Saint-Hubert and Papineau streets with the exception of participants to the Health and Well-being Space at parc Émilie-Gamelin. Any group wishing to occupy a double space will have to submit a request to this effect. Groups who lease a booth will assume all costs related to the preparation of the area. Groups who wish to use their own awnings are required to use cement blocs (one for each leg) and groups who wish to use their own tents or awnings must show proof they have been fireproofed this year.
TABLES AND CHAIRS
Participants will obtain tables and chairs at the corner of Wolfe and Sainte-Catherine streets.
DEPOSIT
We request a $50 cheque as a security deposit payable now. Please send a separate cheque of $50 along with the payment of your space. This cheque will not be cashed and given back to you at the end of the activity. Breakage or loss of property will result in forfeiture of the security deposit as well as an early departure.
ELECTRICITY
No distribution outlets available.
SOUND
If you are planning to use a sound system, please contact Lyne Caron to get official permission (not always given).
OPERATING HOURS
Community Day will begin at 11:00 and will end at 17:00 (16:30 for the kiosks at the Health and Well-being Space). We ask all participants to have finished setting up their kiosks by 10:45 and not to disassemble them before 17:00. Not respecting this time frame will lead to the forfeiture of the deposit.
SPONSORS
You may provide a certain level of visibility to your sponsors. These sponsors must complement those of Montréal Pride. Please contact Jean-Sébastien Boudreault for more information.
FUND COLLECTION
With the exception of alcoholic beverages and food cooked on site, community organizations will be able to sell a wide variety of products to collect funds for their organization. However, Fierté Montréal reserves the right to refuse the sale of certain articles. This refusal could be due to competition with neighbouring stores, the vulgar nature of the product or by the explicit request of the street promoter, the SDC du Village. It is preferable to inform the organizers in advance of the articles you plan on selling to avoid any complications.
ACCREDITATION OF PARTICIPATING ORGANIZATIONS POLICY
Montréal Pride may refuse the participation of any organization if they do not reflect the mission and values of Montréal Pride. Any orgnizations promoting racism, xenophobia, homophobia, lesbophobia, transphobia or any geopolitical and religious conflicts, will be refused and will not take part in the Community Day and the Pride Parade.
OTHER NEEDS
For more information please contact Simon-Luc Lapointe.
