Are you a retail or food vendor looking to trade at the Melbourne RenFair 2026?

This section is for you.

We welcome merchants of all kinds, whether you sell handcrafted goods, medieval wares, fantasy merchandise, or delicious food and drink. The Melbourne RenFair offers both indoor and outdoor trading spaces across themed areas, including the bustling Great Goblin Bazaar and open-air markets.

All stalls must reflect the fantasy or medieval aesthetic of the event. Costuming and basic theming are essential. Spaces are limited and subject to approval based on fit, quality, and variety.

The Great Goblin Bazaar – Expectations & Theme

The Great Goblin Bazaar is a carefully curated indoor marketplace designed to evoke the feel of a bustling fantasy trading hall. We are seeking vendors who offer goods that enhance the immersive atmosphere of The Melbourne RenFair.

We are especially looking for:

Handcrafted items: Leather goods, pottery, jewelry, metalwork
Costuming & gear: Fantasy costumes, armor, cloaks, LARP equipment
Fantasy literature & art: Books, artwork, zines, and collectibles
Magical curiosities: Trinkets, enchanted props, decorative potions
Roleplay accessories: Dice, miniatures, spell scrolls, journals, maps
Apothecary-style goods: Crystals, incense, herbs, witchy wares
Toys & whimsical wares: Games, plushies, and fun items for all ages
Other unique, themed creations that align with our medieval and fantasy aesthetic

Stall Presentation Guidelines:

Vendors are encouraged to decorate their stalls to enhance the fantasy setting.

Suggested theming elements include wooden crates, barrels, and chests to add depth and texture, as well as bunting, banners, and hanging fabrics to create a festive atmosphere. Rustic shelving and wooden signage help display goods in a visually appealing way, while fairy lights or battery-powered candles (no open flames) add a warm, inviting glow.

Themed props, backdrops, and ambient elements can further enhance the immersive experience of your stall.

A cohesive and imaginative display helps create an unforgettable experience for guests and increases your appeal to customers.
