- No bladed items will be permitted in the venue space either for sale or on the person.

- Traders must be respectful to the venue space as this is a public area.
Government Guidelines:
If you trade weaponry, you must be aware of and follow the VCRA (Violent Crime Reduction Act 2006) and regulations on the sale of firearms and other weaponry.
Steampunk replica weaponry looks markedly different from actual firearms. We request the traders use discretion on how these items are displayed and handled. A sign must be displayed, stating that items are replicas and/or part of a subcultural genre.
Deactivated firearms and modern replicas are not permitted to be sold at the event.
- Adult items, offensive words, sex toys and fetish wear – We support and celebrate people who choose to follow an alternative subculture through lifestyle and dress. We will not tolerate any prejudice or intolerance towards people who follow an alternative lifestyle. Please be mindful that this is a sex and fetish-positive event. Art, crafts, pin badges, T-shirts, books, memorabilia or novelty items that contain sexual imagery and/or profanity may be sold.
- Items that contain offensive images, words, or hateful propaganda – Traders are prohibited from trading items that promote prejudice or that incite hate. This includes, but is not limited to Nazi propaganda, fascist materials or anything that glorifies colonialism.
- CANCELLATION POLICY – Once booked and paid for, the stall fee is non-refundable and only transferable to a future event, at the organisers’ discretion.
- TRADER PASSES – Trade Passes allow you access to the festival, this must not come as a sacrifice to the market experience for festival ticket holders. Don’t just close your stall to attend the event. Any trader caught requesting or purchasing additional passes for people not working, to bypass standard event ticketing, will result in a ban from future events.
We want our events to be accessible, promote tolerance, and encourage a sense of community.
