Trade at the
last Bash

Food vendors and stallholders are a big part of the Bash. From schnitzels and kebabs to garlic salts and artwork, our vendors keep Bashers fed and give them something to take home from the Simpson Desert.

If you'd like to join them, start with the Vendor Information & Agreement and the Fees & Dates. They explain the site, fees, key dates, power and water, safety, insurance and sustainability requirements for trading at an OMFG event. Then send us your expression of interest.

Before you apply

What to expect on site

Your site

Each vendor gets a site equal to their approved frontage, to a depth of 20m, with a 1m buffer between neighbours. It includes space for camping if you choose to camp on site.

Power and water

A standard electricity allocation is included, and you bring a generator for backup. Test and tag all your gear. There is no water connection on site, so bring all the water you need.

Rubbish and grey water

Rubbish collection areas and grey water dumping facilities are provided within 150m of every site. No dumping grey water on the ground.

Eftpos and reception

Eftpos is available if you give us your terminal details. Mobile reception is limited, so bring a cash float. You can buy Wi-Fi at the Bash Wifi Hub in the Plaza.

Insurance

Proof of Public Liability Insurance with a minimum cover of $10,000,000 AUD is required for your whole time at the event.

Site induction

Every vendor attends the compulsory site induction on the morning of roll-in day. That is when you collect your wristbands and vehicle stickers.

Food vendors

Hold a current Food Safety Supervisor Certificate and a valid Food Business Licence. Only sell items from the menu you gave us, coffee included. Use compostable packaging, and offer reusable cup refills if you sell coffee.

Non-food vendors

Only sell the products and services you told us about, and don't give customers plastic bags. Prioritise recyclable, reusable and compostable packaging.

No single-use plastics, wax-coated products or polystyrene at any OMFG event. This is a summary. The full conditions are in the Vendor Information & Agreement and the Fees & Dates.
