Closing Date and Payments – Stall Applications can be made through our website tidefestival.com.au, this is our preferred method for submitting your application. All applications must be submitted by Saturday 17th September 2022. Cancellations accepted up until 16/09/2022 – after this date, your application fee will be accepted as a donation and will not be refundable due to our inability to ‘re sell’ your site.

To confirm your site, please pay your site fee into the designated bank account, ensuring you include your name.

Payment for sites may be made by electronic funds transfer (EFT), you will be contacted by the Stallholder Co-ordinator with details.

Commercial business - Please include attached public liability insurance certificate of currency and electrical test and tag registers and food business licence (if applicable) with your application.

Environmentally friendly site – The Sea Market is a plastic free event. To help us achieve this we would appreciate it if you could exclude the use of plastic bags, plastic plates, cups and plastic cutlery. We understand that this may be difficult to achieve but there are many paper and bamboo products available to purchase on line.  We would like to work with all our stall holders to try and achieve this goal.

Site dimensions - All sites are 3.5 metres x 3.5 metres. Additional sites are available on application should you require a larger area. When deciding the size of the area you require, your site must be able to include your entire stall including vehicles, ropes, awnings etc. If you arrive and require additional space it is unlikely you will be able to be accommodated.

Food Stalls - Limited food stalls will be made available. Please provide your menu that you are intending to sell on the day. (To avoid duplication of the same products and to make it profitable for all).  All food stalls must comply with the requirements of the Food Act 2006 and the food safety standards. Food vendors may be required to obtain a Temporary Food Business Licence or must provide a copy of their current Mobile Food Business Licence (must hold a licence in QLD) under the Food Act 2006. This licence must be on display at all times. For more information, or to apply for a Temporary Food Business Licence, contact Redland City Council’s Environmental Health Team on 3829 8569.   This is the vendor’s responsibility.

Bump in/Bump out - The site will be available for marquee set up on Saturday afternoon from 2pm for anyone wanting to get an early start. There will be security on site from 6pm Saturday until the start of the market. Sunday morning set-up is from 5.30am – 8am to coincide with the barge and ferry arrivals. All cars/trailers that are not being utilised as part of the stall need to be parked off site by 8am. A Site Co-ordinator will direct you to your designated site on the day.

We do have a $10.00 hire package available which includes one trestle table and chair if required, as well as $40 for a 3x3 marquee. Ensure you include this order in your application form. Very limited numbers available.

Fees –

Market Stall 3.5 x 3.5 $30 (Food vendors see your application form for costs)

Gas Safety

All commercial operators (caravans, mobile food vans etc.) must have a copy of your Gas System Compliance Certificate available for viewing by council if required. Portable recreation (barbecue, camping) LPG cylinders must have a valid 10-year-stamp.

Stall Operating Hours - All stalls are to remain set up and open for the entire operating hours of the event that is 8.30am – 4.00pm (if sold out stalls can be tied up/closed ready for pull down). Due to WHS requirements, there will be no exceptions to this, as vehicle movement may pose an unacceptable risk to the public.
