THANKYOU EVERYONE - OUR CHISTMAS MARKET IS FULLY BOOKED - 2025 DATES WILL BE RELEASED SHORTLY

All applications are to be received via our form on this website. Once application is received, we will respond within 3 business days. If successful, you will be issued an invoice which is to be paid by the due date listed on the invoice. Our invoicing system does let us know when invoices have been opened. If your invoice remains unpaid by the due date, we reserve the right to cancel and offer your spot to the next person on our waiting list. We are under no obligation to chase prospective vendors for payment or remind them of overdue invoices. Please Note that no one is a confirmed vendor until payment is received.

BWP Markets has a very active social media presence and all vendors for each market are advertised across various platforms including Facebook, Instagram, Tik Tok and events pages. It is our guarantee that you will be advertised on at least one of these platforms at the very least one time for each market. 

The earlier that you apply and pay, the more advertising you will receive from us. We do not advertise any vendor that has not paid their invoice. We have an expectation that all vendors will advertise their presence at each market they are approved for. This benefits you as a vendor as your customers know where they can find you.

All Bump In/Out procedures are posted in our private Facebook group. IT IS A REQUIREMENT THAT YOU JOIN THE VENDORS GROUP FOR ALL UPDATES.

 Our bump ins are staggered and begin at 5.00am in 15-minute intervals. Each Vendor will have at least an hour and a half for set up as a minimum. Vendors are permitted to drive their vehicle (one car per vendor) onto the grounds, unload all setup and then exit the grounds to park your car in a nearby car spot. You can then walk back in and begin setup.

Food Vendors are the only stall holders permitted to have their vehicle left on the grounds during trade and these vehicles must be branded with your business.

You must follow all staff instructions in regard to vehicles on the grounds and drive at 5kmph with hazards on. Parking is less than 50m from the actual market grounds and it is paid from 9am. 

We do not offer parking permits and we, as organisers, also pay for parking each market. Please pay close attention to all signage as the council is active and illegal or unpaid parking will receive a fine. Broadwater Pacilion Markets takes no responsibility for parking fines. Parking is directly beside the venue and all throughout the parklands as well as Australia Fair and a large council carpark across the road. 

Bump out begins at 2.15pm. NO EARLY PACK UPS PERMITTED.

 You must pack down all your stall before getting your vehicle and entering the grounds for bump out.  

Absolutely no moving vehicles on the Great Lawn during market Trading Hours.

In the case that the market is forced to postpone due to inclement weather, all vendors will receive a credit toward the next market. We do not offer refunds.

 As our markets are located in the Broadwater Parklands, it is a requirement that all vendors have appropriate weights and be prepared for winds. It is also an expectation that due to our beautiful QLD weather; all vendors make appropriate arrangements for heat.

It is an expectation of all stall holders that they present their stall in an aesthetically pleasing way. No handwritten signs. All displays and signage are to be kept within your designated area and are not to infringe on other stall holders areas or walkways. You are only permitted to sell items that you were approved for in your application. Broadwater Pavilion Markets assumes that all products for sale meet Australian Standards.

 All Food Vendors are to have valid food licenses and food safety certificates.

Broadwater Pavilion Markets does not offer refunds. It is therefore imperative that you are committed to attending our market dates once approved.

 If for any reason that you are unable to attend the following notice is applicable:

14 days or more - credit for next market 

7 - 14 days - credit for next market only given if your spot is able to be filled

Less than 7 days: Market Fee Forfeited

It is an expectation of all stallholders that they behave in a good manner towards staff and other vendors. If anyone displays abusive or aggressive behavior, does not obey market rules or causes a general disruption, the vendor will be asked to leave the markets with no compensation.

If power is required, then all leads must be no longer than 30m and tagged and tested by a qualified electrician in line with Gold Coast City Council regulations. All leads must be fully covered to avoid trip hazards.

Broadwater Pavilion Markets DOES NOT offer any vendor exclusivity of their category. We do have caps which are dependent on how many stalls per market. We are very fair and strive for variety. You must be aware that there is a possibility someone may sell similar products, it is our policy that anyone with similar products will be placed well away from each other.
