Open Air Spaces with Highway Frontage

Traffic control will be provided by Fayette County Sheriff's Deputies on Friday and Saturday of both weekends. They will also provide night security for you every night. Security is included in your booth fee to help cover the cost of having this protection for you. (Traffic control expenses are shared by our neighbors across the highway at The Arbors Antiques & Collectible Show.)

Our expenses associated with the property, building, improvements in facilities, utilities, taxes, etc. go on regardless of the weather, so the show will also go on, rain or shine. No refunds will be given after you have set up for the sale. By signing below and submitting your application, you agree to release Round Top Hill, it's owners and employees, from any claims for loss or damage caused by accident, rain, wind, hail, lightning, storms, or acts of God. Round Top Hill and its owners will not pay any financial compensation to you for loss of sales deemed lost due to weather or any other factor in or out of our control. By signing below, you also agree to hold harmless and free of liability Round Top Hill, its owners and employees from any loss or damage to your property or vehicles, damage due to accidents, fire or any other cause, injury or death of persons before, during, or after the show.

One half of the booth rental fee is required to reserve a booth and/or RV site, with the balance due no later than two weeks before the show. This time period will allow us to send a receipt back to you prior to the show, and eliminates the paper work otherwise needed upon your arrival here. In the event you have to cancel after having made a deposit, your deposit can be applied to the next show, or you may elect a refund, minus a $50 administrative fee.

Electricity 20-amp electricity with ground fault interrupters is available at each vendor site inside and outside the pavilion. 30-amp electricity is available for food vendors outside the pavilion. Cost for 30-amp service used by food vendors is $25 due to the increased usage caused by air conditioners, electric grills, warmers, freezers, refrigerators, etc.

Help Us Grow! The best advertising we can get is “word of mouth advertising” from our own dealers. For each antique dealer that you refer to Round Top Hill who reserves a booth space with us, you will receive a one time payment of $50 during the show. There is no limit to the number of dealers you can refer to us, so the more you refer, the more you make! Be sure they mention your name when they call or fill out their application. Any new dealers are also eligible for this referral fee if they bring in another new dealer. This comes out of our advertising budget, and we would like to share the rewards of growth with you.

Recruiting Round Top area dealers While we appreciate efforts to help us grow, please do not visit other shows in the Round Top area and recruit dealers from those shows. We would not want their promoters or dealers coming to Round Top Hill to recruit our dealers if their show dates coincide with ours, so it is only fair that we do not recruit their dealers. However, if they come to our location and ask for information about our show, facilities, management, etc., then you are free to volunteer information, give them a business card, flyer, or refer them to me. Thank you.

Insurance Vendors are encouraged (but not required) to join the Antiques & Collectibles Association. It is “the largest dealer association in the United States with thousands of members in all 50 states.” (ACDA) By joining the association, members can obtain dealer insurance that will cover your property at any location, as well as while in transit. You can contact them on the internet at the following address: info@antiqueandcollectible.com or by calling: 800-287- 7127 or 704-895-9088. If you prefer to write, their address is:

Merchandise Quality The primary focus of Round Top Hill is good quality antiques. This is a juried show, so please send pictures of items you plan to sell, preferably by e-mail to: roundtophill@yahoo.com or mail to our postal address listed above. Flea market items, cell phones, sunglasses, tee shirts, food supplements, garage sale items, etc. will not be accepted. Display of such items only brings down the price of quality antiques displayed next to it. It is our intent to have a high quality show that is family oriented. Objectionable material in the form of posters, paintings, signs, pictures, sculptures, etc. will not be allowed. Anything found to be anti-religious or anti-American by the owners of Round Top Hill must be removed from display.

RV Sites We have RV sites in a well lit area available for vendors on a first come, first served basis. Each site has water and 30-amp electric service. The daily rate for our dealers will be $15, which includes water and electricity. If you need one of these sites for the show, we strongly recommend you reserve it early (Half down deposit required to hold it). We do not have sewer connections, but the people who service the porta-potties can vacuum your holding tanks on location for a fee of $25 payable directly to them. Any sites not rented by dealers will be made available to the public for $25 per night (Our dealers are given a discount in order to hold down their travel expense so they can pass those savings on to shoppers.)

Sales tax ID All vendors must provide a Texas sales tax number. There have been conflicting reports about whether a Texas sales tax ID is required for out of state vendors, so I called the Texas State Comptroller's office for an official opinion. I was told that all vendors are required to have a Texas sales tax ID. Violators have been fined and required to shut down by state officials at other shows. Processing of applications can take 2-3 weeks, so please fill out one as soon as possible and get it in the mail. In the blank asking for address, I was told that you should not list Round Top, but rather the address you normally list for your business or home. If an application is not enclosed with the information you have received, please contact:

If you have access to the internet, online forms are available at

Vendors are responsible for collecting, reporting, and paying all applicable taxes. When you report and pay the taxes collected in Round Top, be sure to report that the taxes were collected in Fayette County, Texas. I was told by the comptroller's office that if you have applied for your permit but have not received your number by show time, you can call them at one of the numbers listed above and they will give you your tax id number over the phone. If you reserve booth space with us for a show and do not receive your sales tax id before the show, we can either give you a full refund on the deposit or apply it for the next show. So, please send in your application to the state and make reservations with us as soon as possible!

Set Up/Take Down Set up can begin at 2:00 p.m. on the Thursday before opening day of the show and last until 11:00 p.m. Take down after the show will not begin until Saturday afternoon at 6:00 p.m. and can continue until 11:00 p.m. Anyone camping with us and needing to stay in an RV site on the last night of the show and leave on Sunday is welcome to stay. All items must be removed from your booth by 4:00 p.m. on the Sunday after the show.

Storage If you need storage before or after the show, the closest available storage units are only about ¼ mile north at Faye's Self Storage. She can be reached at 979-968-0075.

Table Covers For those displaying your antiques in the pavilion, we request that you cover your tables with some type of table cloth to help give a neater and more professional appearance for the entire pavilion. This also allows you to store empty containers out of sight. Empty containers that can't be stored out of sight should be removed from your booth. This does not have to be an expensive material, but simply something to hide any clutter you may have stored underneath the tables. Tables that we rent are 96” long, 30” wide, and about 28” high. Table covers should be wide enough to extend to within 6 inches of the ground on the aisle side.

Round Top Hill Antiques & RV is owned by Roy and Marlene Bolton and is managed by Roy Bolton.
