who are the untold events co crew?

The Untold Events Co was created in 2012 by husband and wife super team Vanessa & Joel Johnson. They live with their 2 cute kids and big brown dog in Somers, Victoria.  For the past decade they have created stunning events in beautiful locations which include Emu Plains Market in Balnarring and Little Beauty Market in Frankston. In all their spare time (!) they also curate an interest store of curious goods in Main Street, Mornington called Albert & Daphne. If you're a local, pop in and say hi!

when do applications open?

Application opening dates will be listed on our website from June.

Once you have filled in your application successfully you will receive an immediate confirmation on screen saying that your application has been sent. If you don't get this message please double check your image sizes (no bigger than 500KB) as this is often the cause of applications not being successfully submitted.

We will then endeavour to get back to you as soon as possible - nobody likes to be kept waiting but we always make sure we thoroughly research each and every application and this takes time! If you haven't heard from us within two weeks please feel free to contact hello@untoldevents.com.au to follow up.

what is the selection process?

It’s pretty simple – we look at the quality of your products, the appearance of your stall display and how unique you are.

Unfortunately, we can’t accept everyone’s application but that doesn’t mean we don’t like your products - it may just mean that we are currently full in the category you are applying in! Our aim is to provide a diverse market experience for everyone who wonders under the stringybarks.
