You can put money towards education expenses including:

The Bazaarium Youth Market expression of interest is open!

 

If you are a young creative between the age of 10 – 25 years old, then this is the opportunity for you to showcase your talent over two days in April at the third Youth Market in Albany.

 

For more information and to express your interest follow this link: https://www.albany.wa.gov.au/forms/2024-youth-market-stallholder-application-form/96

 

Please note that expressions of interest will be closing on Friday 1 March 2024.

 

Due to the popularity of this market and limited capacity in the Town Hall please note that expressing your interest does not guarantee you a stall, as we endeavour to have a range of different products available to the public. You will be notified once EOI's close if you have been successful.

 

If you have previously attended the market, there has been some changes this year:

  • You will be required to attend both market days, being Saturday 6 & Sunday 7 April 2024 (previously you could do either date or both)
  • There are limited spaces for stalls with a clothes rack (see link for site map)
  • The maximum number of stalls is 22 to ensure everyone has enough space in the Town Hall
