Become a River & Wren trader

Sell your handmade goods at our market

River & Wren Market is a curated, handmade market. We’re proud to showcase local talent from Wagga Wagga and the surrounding Riverina region and welcome a selection of traders from further afield.

Each market sees thousands of eager shoppers flock to see the handmade, homemade and homegrown goods on offer from more than 100 traders.

What’s included as a trader

All sites are typically 3 metres by 3 metres, and we have power, tables and insurance available for an additional cost.

Most of our market shops are indoors, located in either Kyeamba Smith Hall or Hammond Hall (regulars know this as the Food Hall) at the Wagga Wagga Showground. Additional shops and food vans can be set up outside, in between the two halls.

In addition to your space at the market, you also get:

• A listing in our trader directory

• The opportunity to be featured on our social media to our audience of 17K+

• To meet and network with other creatives, foodies and growers — our trader community is welcoming and supportive

About our traders

When it comes to selecting traders, we consider a range of factors including:

• Product quality: All products should adhere to our ethos of handmade, homemade and homegrown in Australia. Our terms and conditions have further guidance.

• Uniqueness: In the interest of traders, we limit the number of shop types at our market to offer variety for customers and encourage trade.

• Location: We love to support local and regional creators and food producers. Where a product is unavailable in our region, we allow traders from further afield to come along.

There are lots of products we already know and love, but we also love to see new and different things too, so don’t be discouraged if you’re not on the list.
