• Marketing plans (how will your promote your involvement in The Garden?) and

Paperwork required to establish the direct debits will be sent to all successful Stallholders. STALLHOLDER INFRASTRUCTURE This year The Garden will be creating a Market Stall space using shipping containers including a timber decking area for walkthrough traffic. The number of sites available will be dependant on expressions of interest from stallholders, and finding the perfect balance of stalls to create a welcoming bazaar of Adelaide’s finest wares! The Gardeners make no promise or guarantee of stall position within The Garden prior to the event. Stallholder EOIs are accepted on the understanding that the Stallholder agrees that their market stall position is at the sole discretion of The Gardeners. Stallholders must provide access to their stall to The Gardeners or other relevant regulatory bodies whenever required to ensure compliance with all relevant codes, guidelines or laws. Failure to meet guidelines set by relevant authorities may result in Stallholder being closed down until such time as the breach is remedied. Stallholder will still be liable for full Site Fees during any period of closure. STALL PRESENTATION We are looking for Market Stallholders that take pride in the presentation of their stall and add to the aesthetic of The Garden. Presentation of all aspects of The Garden are important to us, and it’s imperative that Stallholders and their staff present themselves, their stalls and their products in the best possible light at all times. The Gardeners retain the right to insist any Stallholder properly maintains their stall. Failure by the Stallholder to comply with this rule may result in The Gardeners taking direct action which may include repair, remediation, rubbish removal or requiring the stall shut down. The costs incurred through any of these actions will be charged to the Stallholder. RIGHT OF VETO The Gardeners retain the right to enter any market stall at any time and remove any article, sign, picture or printed matter, which, in our opinion, is either not eligible for display or is considered offensive or substandard. This extends to any items (eg. A-frame signs) located outside of the stall. SEATING OR FURNITURE Stallholders are not to bring any seating or furniture for customers to site, without the prior written consent of The Gardeners. PRODUCT LIST All product lists are subject to approval by The Gardeners. You are not permitted to sell anything not listed in your application form.

rights to any specific product. You must not sell any tobacco related products, liquor related
products or items that may contravene existing sponsorship agreements held by The Gardeners.

elsewhere in Rundle Park. The Gardeners, if deemed necessary, will withhold a portion or all of a
Stallholder’s Site Bond to offset remediation costs to repair site damage caused by a Stallholder.
