Application FAQs
Online Applications make the process of selecting and communicating with performers, volunteers and market stalls much easier, and allow participants of the event to provide us with up to date information to be used in the selection process and promotion of the event. If you are submitting an application for performance or for a market stall, the information relating to your act may be used in the website, so make sure that what you submit is current and accurate.
You will need to upload some images during your application. The image specifications are outlined near the upload tool. The easiest way to upload an image is take an image already on the web ... perhaps from your facebook or myspace ... as these images will be a reasonable size and quick to upload. If you are uploading an image taken from a camera, be mindful of the image size - hi-res images can get quite large and take a while to upload. If your images are too big (taken straight from a camera), or the wrong format - check out these free online tools to pre-process your images so they can be uploaded in your application.

If you are applying as a dj / live act / band, you will need to provide some sound samples. One of the best ways to do this is to set up a Sound Cloud account - which lets you host your music for free. Please make sure that the music samples/mixes that you upload are downloadable so we can check them out.
