FAQS

When is the Market on?

Every Saturday and Sunday 9am-4pm. The Market is only cancelled if Christmas Day, Boxing Day,New years Eve, New Years Day fall on a Saturday or Sunday.

Where does the Market operate?

In the grounds of Rozelle School, on Darling St. It is about 50m from the intersection at Victoria Rd and on the Balmain side of Victoria Rd.

What can I sell?

Rozelle Markets specializes in 2nd hand goods ranging from garage sales to retro, antiques and collectables. New products are strictly limited to no more than 10 stalls per day. Food stalls, Tarot reading and massage are limited and vacancies in these areas are rare.

On Saturdays there is a limit on clothing. We already have our limit of clothing stalls on Saturday but to accomodate garage sale stalls we allow up to no more than 50% in clothing, shoes and handbags. The rest of the stall would normally consist of jumble. On Sundays there is no limit on clothing.

How do I book a stall?

One third of the Market is set aside for casual stalls each week. Bookings are by phone only on the week leading up to the weekend that you want. Call the Tuesday before for the Saturday and the Wednesday before for the Sunday. Calls start from 11am sharp. The phone line is open until 3pm but the Market often books out by 12.30pm. Ph: (02) 9818 5373.

It can be difficult to get through as it is very busy. It is recommended that you put half an hour aside for hitting the redial button. Sometimes patience is needed but once you get through you are spoken to personally and given a stall site over the phone which is held for you until 8.30am on the morning of the Market.

PLEASE NOTE: Have a pen and paper ready to save time for others who are waiting to book.

An alternative way to book is to pre-book and pre pay . This can ONLY be done at the Market in person on Saturday for the next Saturday and Sunday for the next Sunday between 3pm-4pm at the Market office i.e Blue door on the right, through the main foyer of Rozelle School. This is a convenient and easy way to book, however there are absolutely no refunds or transfers under any circumstances. (Including if the Market does not go ahead because of extreme weather). NB: New product stalls can NOT be pre booked.

How much does it cost for a casual stall?

The stall space is $50, trestle tables can be hired for $6 each extra and daily insurance $10 if applicable.  Rent is collected on the day. Cash only. Sorry credit cards can not be accepted.

What is the Stallholders Lucky Door Prize?

In February 08 we intoduced a lucky door prize for all stallholders which will be ongoing. At the time of paying rent on the day you are given a ticket with your stall number and how much you paid. Be sure to put this ticket in the purple box by 1pm for a chance to win your stall costs back. Two drawn each normal day. 

Do I need Insurance?

Yes. All stallholders at Rozelle Markets are required to have Public Liability Insurance. Permanent stallholders must have their own Insurance Policies and give a copy of a Certificate of Currency to management. It is recommended that regular casuals also obtain their own Insurance policies.                            

However Insurance cover can be purchased for one day if necessary at a cost of $10 from Rozelle Markets management.

What time do I come for my stall?

There are two set up times. At the time of booking you are told your stall number, location and what time to come. Stalls around the perimiter of the Market arrive between 7am-8.30am. These stalls may use their cars to unload next to their stall but all cars MUST be out of the Market area by 8am.

Stalls in the centre of the grounds arrive between 8.05am-8.30am. These stall holders must walk their things in from the carpark. All stalls are held until 8.30am on the dot. To secure your position, it is advised that you make sure it does not look vacant at 8.30am because it could be given away to a Standby.

Where can I park?

There are a limited amount of parking spots for stallholders within the school grounds. It is best to be dropped off and have the car taken away but if necessary stallholders may stack park behind the main buidling. NB: Cars can not be moved for any reason in this area before 4.15pm.

PLEASE LEAVE YOUR NAME AND MOBILE PHONE NUMBER (OR STALL NUMBER) ON THE DASHBOARD OF YOUR CAR. 

What does Standby mean?

On booking days, once the Market stalls have been booked out we can safely take a list of 15 standbys who we can guarantee will get a space on the day from cancellations and no shows. Yes! Over 15 years it has always happened. The majority of standbys come at 8.30am and are met by the Manager outside the front entrance foyer of the school building. Standbys are taken around the the Markets in order an choose spots from the 'no shows'. We have a spill over area that we can use if necessary.

What size is a stallspace and how big are the tables?

Most of the stalls are roughly 3m x 3m. However some are bigger or smaller. They are all the same price.

The tables are 2.4m long and 0.6m wide.

What should I bring?

  • A gazebo no larger than 3x3 or a market umbrella and stand (Not all stall spaces can accomodate a 3x3 tent)
  • A chair for yourself, table cloth, signs and display equipment for your stall.
  • A minimum of $50 change is suggested in gold coins and $5 notes.
  • Shopping bags for your customers purchases.
  • Your stall and table hire fee.
  • Food stalls are available for refreshments. Toilet facilities are on site up steps. Disabled toilets are 50m away on Victoria Rd.

What happens in wet weather?

The Market is never cancelled ahead of time. All stalls are held until 8.30am. Stallholders are strongly encouraged to come with wet weather protection. Some of the best business is done when the weather report is less than perfect. However if the weather is extreme the stallholders make the decision to stay or leave at 8.30am. Those who stay pay rent at that time. Prepaid stalls are non refundable. Permanent stallholders pay a cancellation fee if they don't stay.

How do I become permanent?

Two thirds of the Market is permanent. No more new product stalls may become permanent. Suitable stalls need to come at least three times in a row on the same weekend day before they can ask the Manager to be put on the 'Permanent' waiting list. Those waiting come each week as a casual until their turn comes up. Existing permanents need to leave before vacancies become available.

What does it mean to be permanent?

 Permanents do not need to book by phone. Permanents have their chosen position held for them each week until 8.30am on the day.

Permanents are expected to come each week.

Permanents may have four times off per year at no charge. e.g holidays, sickness, bad weather etc. After that a cancellation fee of $10 is charged for non attendance each day. Permanents sign a 'set of conditions to abide by.
