BOO FEST
ALTERNATIVE
ARTIST
MARKET
Do you always look out for the alt/dark/spooky-cute/goth/emo stall at the market? Wish there was an event made up entirely of those kinds of vendors? Welcome to Boo Fest, you've found your people.
Boo Fest is an artist run initiative to celebrate Alternative artists and makers here in Naarm/Melbourne and across Australia. Our mission is to foster a strong and connected community that provides peer support while delivering an exciting and inclusive event for both artists, vendors, and attendees.

the theme
The theme will be Medi-EVIL. Descend into the dungeon with only a sputtering torch and the scratching of creatures in the gloom to guide you.
Think dark and sexy medieval times; knights, armour, chainmail and weaponry, blacksmiths, plague doctors, witches and witch hunters, gothic castles, haunted cathedrals, demons and all the ludicrous mythical beasts you find in the pages of illuminated manuscripts.
