Welcome to the Food Vendor Application for ReFest 2026.
If you would like to run a workshop, please complete the link/form found here.

SELECTION CRITERIA
Inner West Council prioritises businesses that are based within the Inner West Council local government area, as well as:
- Businesses operating in sustainability and the circular economy
- Businesses using minimal packaging e.g napkin only, unlined paper bag only. Single-use packaging (including compostable and cardboard) is discouraged for this event.
- Businesses whose offerings align with Council's Community Strategic Plan;
- Local businesses with particular regards to those who support the local community year round
Due to high demand and a limited number of spots on the day, we regret not all applications will be successful. Selection of stallholders is the final decision of Council.
