This September marks the 10th anniversary of Punk Rock Flea Market London. What began as a small gathering at Call the Office has grown into one of Canada's longest-running alternative markets. Thousands of artists, makers, musicians, volunteers, community partners, and attendees continue to make PRFM what it is. This anniversary event is a celebration of that shared history and the people who helped create it. 

Hey Fam!

First things first, READ THIS WHOLE APPLICATION!

This is an APPLICATION, NOT a registration form. Filling this form out does not guarantee you a spot. If you're selected, we will be in touch with the next steps for you to officially register to vend and pay your vendor fees. We must see your products in order to consider your application, and genuinely read every answer you provide, so please complete this form thoroughly.

Punk Rock Flea Market London is a curated market pop-up in London, Ontario. We celebrate the DIY ethos and all things independent and handmade. We work hard to be an inclusive place and community driven while supporting and uplifting small businesses, local charity organizations, and live music.

PIN+PATCH+BUTTON MAKERS / JEWELERS / ZINE MAKERS / RECORD COLLECTORS + LABELS / SOAP + BODY PRODUCTS / VINTAGE PICKERS + UPCYCLERS / POTTERS / and as always ALL THINGS STRANGE + UNUSUAL + DIY

PRFM does NOT allow: overly graphic content, taxidermy that has not been sourced ethically, culturally appropriated goods and crafts, ai "art", resellers or MLM's, hate of any kind - this goes for homophobia, racism, transphobia, sexism, xenophobia, and all the other bad isms/phobis. BE COOL!

We’re wildly proud of the community that surrounds PRFM - the local collaborations, the long-standing relationships between vendors, and the consistent support shown every time we come together. Community growth, connection, and mutual support have been at the core of PRFMLDN since day one.

PRFMLDN is dedicated to promoting unique small businesses, makers, and artists, while also making space for community outreach and opportunities to give back. If you’re new to PRFM, our events are promoted through Instagram and Facebook, paid ads, and media outreach. Each participating vendor is also featured through our Vendor Spotlights, because highlighting the people behind the work matters to us.

We encourage vendors to share event posts, support fellow vendors through promotion, and help spread the word so we’re all contributing to the success of the event. Ten years in, we’re still growing, and we’re grateful to keep building this alongside our community.

POW WOW ALLEY at PRFM is a space-making collaboration with Ms. Antone’s Beadwork. It has grown organically over the years as Indigenous vendors expressed the desire to be situated together, prioritizing community and connection over competition.

The intention behind POW WOW ALLEY is to honour the long-standing tradition of Pow Wows as places of gathering, safety, celebration, and representation of each Nation’s culture and traditions. For generations, Pow Wows have been vital spaces where Indigenous-made jewelry, art, crafts, and wares could be shared, sold, and celebrated within community.

We acknowledge the harm caused by the Indian Act, including the outlawing of cultural practices such as Pow Wows, and the ongoing impacts of colonial policies. In our efforts to support Indigenous cultural reclamation and movements such as Land Back, POW WOW ALLEY is one way we work to intentionally create and hold space for Indigenous artists from various Nations across Turtle Island. It is a space grounded in respect, visibility, and self-determined representation.

ONLY ANSWER THE NEXT TWO QUESTIONS IF YOU'RE AN INDIGENOUS VENDOR, PLEASE.

PLEASE choose ONLY the day you are absolutely certain you'd like to vend. 

FRIDAY NIGHT: 5pm - midnight 
10x10 tent - $250
10x10 your own personal branded tent - $230

SATURDAY: 11am - 4pm 
4 foot table space - $110
6 foot table space - $135
10 x 10 tent space - $250

The spaces provided can be filled with a combination of tables/shelves/rolling racks, as long as you fit within your alloted space. The 4 foot and 6 foot table spaces are table frontage, not square. 

PRFM provides tents for all vendors (unless you have a branded one you'd prefer to bring for a 10x10 space). Vendors must supply their own tables/rolling racks/shelving/chairs, etc. Vendors on Friday night MUST provide their own battery operated lighting.

PRFM may have to assign you with a different sized space and requests will be taken into consideration. Please be understanding if you don't get what you've requested. 

If you are accepted please take note of the table size in your email. It will note if you've been assigned a 4 foot table space, a 6 foot table space, or a 10x10 foot tent.  

Vendors may share table spaces with their buds, BUT both vendors must apply and both be accepted to do so. Make a note of what vendor you'd like to share space with in the 'special request' section. 

If you are accepted, you will receive an email with next steps to confirm your space and submit payment.

If you are not accepted, you will automatically be placed on our waitlist. We do actively use our waitlist in the case of cancellations, so don’t stress.
