Interested in being a stallholder at an upcoming Plant Empire Market? We're always looking for new stallholders with exciting products that connect with nature, including plants, ceramics, nature-inspired arts and crafts, food and more. We also welcome applications from artists and creatives who might be able to add to the market experience through music, entertainment and interactive displays. 

Market stalls cost $70 for a 2 square metre space (2 x 1 metre) indoors or $80 for a 9 square metre space (3 x 3 metres) outdoors. We are also able to provide optional insurance cover for a limited number of stalls under our market insurance policy for a $25 fee. You will need to bring all your own equipment, including tables and (for outdoor stalls) a marquee.

Our calendar for stallholder applications in 2024 is provided in the table below.  

To apply for a stall, new stallholders should send us an email to team@plantempire.com.au with the information listed below. If you've had a stall at one of our past markets, we just need an email from you requesting a stall with your updated insurance details. For both new and existing stallholders, please use the following format for your email subject:

Please note:

1. Stalls may be shared with prior approval; however, this information must be included with your application so that we can assess your application jointly. For shared stalls, list include the information above for each person/business sharing the stall. We will liaise with one person for each stall, so please nominate the primary contact with your application.

2. We do not take applications for future market dates, and applications will not be accepted prior to the opening date. Please make a note of the application periods, and hold off on sending your application until applications have opened. 

3. We usually receive more applications than we have space available, so places are not guaranteed. 

4. If you miss the application closing date, you are still welcome to submit an application to join the waiting list in case a spot becomes available.
