Notice to Vendors

To ensure a fair application process to as many approved vendors as possible the City of Edmonton Vending Program will be running three 6-week periods of the Assigned Vendor Locations (AVL) permits. If you were unable to submit for one period or were not randomly selected in a period, please note you can apply for the second or third round.  Once an application deadline has passed, the application will be closed and only those applications submitted by the deadline will be considered. 

  • Vendors with one unit are required to select one permit option 
  • Vendors with two units can enter one unit into First Come First Serve (FCFS) and one into Assigned Vendor Locations (AVL)
  • Vendors with three or more units can enter one unit into each pilot, all other units may obtain street roaming permits

Permit Holders

This section will be updated once permits of this type have been issued and paid for. All vendors who have been granted permits will be listed here.


Only approved vendors will be considered for the Approved Vendor Locations or First Come First Serve pilot programs. If you do not appear on the approved vendors list, your application will be considered invalid.  To apply to become an Approved Vendor, please email streetvending@edmonton.ca to begin the process.


Vendors with multiple units can apply for two park pilots - one unit in each type, the Assigned Vendor Locations (AVL) and the First Come First Serve (FCFS). Vendors with more than two vending units will not have their additional vending units considered.







Vending units are to be a maximum total length (including truck/trailer combinations) of 12.5m and weight of 8000kg.
Sidewalk Carts/Food Carts are not eligible for the park pilot programs. Sidewalk carts have their own permit category for sidewalk vending location specific permits.




Civic Events & Festivals
There may be special events or festivals occurring in some of the listed park locations - this may lead specific dates being removed as an option for individual vending. The impacted locations will be evaluated in conjunction with running the random selection draw. Civic events and festivals have priority placement in parks.



Personal information is collected for the purpose of reviewing your application for Vending Permit and will be used to connect with and provide services to applicants. Collection is authorized under section 33(c) of the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy (FOIP) Act and is managed and protected in accordance with the Act. If you have questions about the collection, please contact Nelson Adkin, Supervisor of Operations Planning, 780-496-8844, or Nelson.Adkin@edmonton.ca.
