Macleay Youth Laneway Festival 2024 – Get involved

Kempsey Shire Council

To celebrate Youth Week 2024, the Macleay Youth Laneway festival is back – bigger and better!

We are seeking youth entrepreneurs, business owners and performers aged 10-25, who wish to register to have a free stall and sell their products/services at the laneway festival.

Stall Holders Wanted

Are you a talented maker, artist, creative or budding entrepreneur? Showcase your wares and grab a free stall at the Youth Laneway Festival.

Stall types can include (but are not limited to):

  • Handcrafted & upcycled products
  • Jewellery
  • Fashion
  • Toys
  • Pet products
  • Accessories
  • Plants
  • Candles and soaps
  • Sensory products and fidgets
  • Greeting cards and stationery
  • Pottery and crafts
  • Much more

Stalls are FREE for youth. No site fees. Stall holders under 18 must have a parent, guardian or carer in attendance to support them on the day. Sites are space only; you will need to supply your own display and equipment.

What you will need for the day:

  • Table (incl table clothes, display stands etc.) that you will need to display your goods
  • Products you want to sell
  • Provide and manage their own cash float for sales (and/or portable EFT payment device)
  • Always have a responsible adult present while you are at the markets
  • Arrive by 1pm to set up in time
  • If you have a marquee, you may need to bring this – this will be confirmed closer to the day based on site layout. If you don’t have a marquee, we will set you up some where you don’t need one.

Performers Wanted

Paid opportunities for youth performers are available – we are especially looking for singers and musicians who wish to showcase their talents.
