Thank you for your interest in supporting Garden Ridge Market Days! Our 2nd
Saturday market draws in between 4,000-8,000 customers on average, who
come to enjoy 200+ local farm, craft and food vendors on site.
In addition to supporting local businesses, one of the key components of our
market is creating community. We give back by hosting non-profits every month
and provide the community with free activities, live music, photo opps and more.
In recent months, we’ve hosted local schools, the local fire department, had
pony rides and a unicorn experience, character meet-and-greets, scavenger
hunts, balloon twisters, dinosaur experiences and more.
Sponsors like YOU help to fund these creative activities that keep the
community engaged and involved, and are the heart of our market! Since most
of these activities run anywhere from $200-$1,500 per market, we are in need of
assistance to fund them to make them free or very affordable for the community.
In return, we can offer booth space (10ft x 10ft), social media promotions (16k
followers on Facebook), printed signage/banners, business card/flyer
distribution, and work together closely to see how we can best collaborate an
exciting campaign. Most importantly, Sponsors having their name and brand out
there as supporting the community is just an added benefit of being a part of the
bigger picture. Customers take notice of who is involved, and remember when it
comes time for them to need your services!
If you’re interested in becoming a Sponsor for Garden Ridge Market Days,
please review the following options and email back with your preferences and
dates requested to start your campaign. Thank you!

Social Media Insights
Social media is a powerful tool! It singularly launched our market from 20
vendors to over 150 vendors in our first year alone! With only one market each
month and now over 200 vendors, we have over 16,000+ followers and
commonly reach stats like this in less than one month of activity: “100K+ Views,
41.5K Reach.”
We show you this not to boast but to display what value you would be getting in
hosting a promotion or ad with us on our social media.
We are happy you build custom campaigns to feature you on social media and
in person to our customers, vendors and followers. Let’s make a plan!
