VENDOR APPLICATION FORM

Thanks for taking the time to apply to vendor at Townsville Folk Festival. Application opens 8th January closes 1 March 2024

The Townsville Folk Festival is run by the Townsville Folk and Acoustic Music Club Inc., which is a group of local, hard-working, fun-loving volunteers. We endeavour to provide a broad range of stalls and opportunities for festival goers. Every attempt is made to provide a fair and equitable opportunity for all applicants. If you're selling something unique, it is handcrafted, and you provide an opportunity for festival goers to interact with your craft,  we want you at our festival.

All profits raised go to supporting the club and next year’s festival, so thank you in advance for your contribution and support of the festival.

The Folk Club hopes that everyone will embrace the principles upon which the festival is run which include a family focus, environmental consciousness, a fun and harmonious festival. (This means no war toys, minimizing wrapping and eco-friendly). Townsville Folk Festival has affiliated ourselves with Townsville Plastic Free to become zero waste.
