Bazaar, Pirate Market and Food Vendors
Call for applications
Boom Festival 2025 edition is around the corner. It’s time to welcome applications in three different areas: Food Vendors, Bazaar and Pirate Market.
Each edition, people from across the globe bring their creative talents to the vibrant Boom community - crafting delicious, nutrient-rich food and showcasing one-of-a-kind artefacts in beautifully curated stalls. Participating is both a passion and a challenge, as many of you have experienced firsthand.
The Heart of Nourishment at Our Festival
At the core of our festival experience lies the incredible contribution of our food vendors. They are more than just providers of meals; they are the creators of nourishment, flavour, and connection. Food is essential in shaping the festival’s atmosphere, fueling Boomers, and elevating the experience: we are very proud of the careful curation we do to select healthy, diverse, tasteful and international food.
Like in previous editions, health-conscious choices and a conscious impact on the planet are key. The goal for 2025 is to reach 90% of all food menus plant-based. This commitment not only aligns with the ethos of our festival but also reflects a growing global movement toward mindful eating. We are not a prohibitionist festival, yet we apply a tool on every restaurant to show the climate impact of each menu, hoping you will make informed decisions that benefit the planet.
We thank you for your dedication to making our festival a space where body, mind, and spirit are nourished. You can apply Here.
A New Phase For Pirate Market
In 2025, we are introducing an important change - all Pirate Market participants will need to apply in advance. While we continue to support the spirit of the Pirate Market and its space, there have been concerns about the impact on nature, the century-old walls and public spaces. Additionally, some Boomers have complained about the increasing number of non-licensed stalls taking over the land. Therefore, as the festival evolves and to maintain balance and structure, we are asking for better organisation within the market.
To join the Pirate Market, please submit an application that describes in detail the products you plan to sell. At the festival, only Pirate Merchants whose application has been accepted will be allowed. You can apply Here.
The Vibrant Marketplace of Boom
The festival's Bazaar is a beating heart of creativity, connection and discovery. This bustling marketplace, located near the Alchemy Circle and the Sacred Fire, is where creativity and the community come together offering a treasure trove of unique items, handcrafted goods and eclectic finds.
From artisanal crafts and handmade jewelry to vintage treasures and sustainable creations, the market is where stories are told through every piece on display. Each stall is an invitation to explore, connect with passionate creators and take home a piece of the festival’s magic. Please apply here to join the Bazaar.
