Our 5th Anniversary Bazaar: Vendor Registration
Please review our registration guidelines before signing up—they help keep everything fair, fun, and running smoothly.
Event Guidelines & Application
- The Silk Route Children’s Bazaar will accept a maximum of 100 businesses. Registration will close once all spots are filled.
- To ensure variety, Silk Route Children’s Bazaar will limit the number of businesses in the same category. If your idea is too similar to one already accepted, you’ll be notified and given the chance to resubmit.
- Applicants must be ages 6–16 on or before the application opening date.
- Please submit one application per business (not per child). The business can have up to 3 children.
- If children of different age groups apply together, they will compete in the age group of the oldest member.
- Accepted applicants will be notified starting in Mid August 2026 until all 100 spots are filled. Upon notification, a $25 fee per business will be required to secure the booth.
- We do not have the manpower to run this event without your help. We request parents to consider volunteering for the event. You can register to volunteer here.
- If you are a food vendor please check our food and drink policy here, before applying.
- If you require financial assistance to enable your child/children to participate in the bazaar, please contact us as we have a limited number of bursaries available.
