SELECTION CRITERIA

Food Vendor Application

Dulwich Hill Festival

Sunday 20 September 2026, 11am-4pm

Marrickville Road, Dulwich Hill

 

FOOD VENDORS ONLY

Please read all the information in this application carefully.

Dulwich Hill Festival 2026 is seeking: 

🍜 High-quality, diverse food offerings that complement existing businesses within the event footprint (Dulwich Hill, Marrickville Rd corridor)
⚡ Efficient service with capacity to handle peak crowds, and strong value for money
🎪 Strong presentation and stall design
🌱 Environmentally responsible practices, and (where possible) fresh and healthy menu offerings 
📍 Local Inner West businesses are prioritised, with strong EOIs from outside the area also considered

Due to high demand and a limited number of stalls, not all applications will be successful. Participation in previous events does not guarantee an offer. Council is unable to provide individual feedback on unsuccessful applications.

 

Selection of stallholders is the final decision of Council. Due to high demand, Council is unable to provide individual feedback on unsuccessful applications. Council reserves the right to amend the selection criteria at any time without notice. Incomplete applications may not be considered.

STALLS: If you require Council to provide you with a stall structure, you will be provided a 3m x 3m walled marquee and 1 trestle table. You can view an example structure here.

If you are providing your own infrastructure, you will need to bring appropriate weights, tables, chairs, and other furniture.
