Hello, and thank you for your interest in applying for Walyalup Fremantle Arts Centre’s Bazaar Market!
Bazaar is Western Australia’s most loved market and takes place within WFAC’s beautiful grounds. Bazaar presents the highest calibre of WA-designed wares, from crafts and homewares to fashion, jewellery, textiles, ceramics, woodwork, toys, prints, stationery and more.
We’re thrilled to announce that, following extensive stallholder consultation, WFAC is trialling a no-commission model to improve the financial outcome for makers. Previous Bazaar income and commission figures suggest that this will significantly reduce the overall costs for stallholders, increasing their profits. To subsidise this model, stallholder fees have increased. Please see stallholder costs below.
If you have any questions, or require any assistance with this form, please contact us at bazaar@fremantle.wa.gov.au.
