Shift lengths vary depending on the event. Load-in and load-out typically take about 30 minutes each, while setup and teardown generally require 1.5–3 hours. Plan to be available for up to 4 hours, though some events may require less time. Will always be compensated for the time you are actively working.
Pop-up shops typically occur on weekends, including Fridays. For multi-day events, setup may take place the evening before or the morning of the first day, with teardown in the afternoon of the last day. Single-day events will have setup before and teardown after open vending hours. Exact timing depends on the schedule and requirements of each event.
