A Note from MommaBat, the Wicked Bazaar founder:
The Wicked Bazaar was born during a blood moon Taurus eclipse.
An idea I had for years now, but was too nervous to move forward with due to the time and energy I would need to allot to this worthy endeavour. Something I did not have a lot of as a mom to 3 young children. But as my children get older, I have found myself craving more, and wanting to provide more.
I have noticed many a Witchy Market in different cities around the world, but it is not something that has been necessarily explored in Winnipeg. There are so many amazing alternative markets and makers who never get the chance to showcase their work at a lot of the big markets that prefer a different vibe and aesthetic. I know the frustrations of being rejected from market after market and I wanted another option for the underdogs to have. The alternative markets are very popular and successful in Winnipeg, and I want to be a part of this scene.
I also want to explore different avenues of events and community. Charitable work. Celebration! I will not be limiting myself to just markets. I can’t wait to connect in other ways and work towards new things. The applications are not available yet for October 2025. It will be more party focused and lesser so than a market. But there will be a limited amount of vendor placements.
I am looking for alternative/witchy makers. People who are connected to nature and spirit. People who add a little magic and energy into the work that they do. You do not necessarily need to be a Witch to partake in The Wicked Bazaar, however I am looking for uniqueness and spirit. I am looking for anything a bit dark, spooky, magical, unique, rustic and quirky and different. This can be anywhere from crystals, to jewelry, artwork, pottery, apparel, vintage, food, drink, skincare, candles, soaps. As long as the intention is put into your business, you are absolutely the right fit for these events.
We are also looking for volunteers always. And sponsorship absolutely. Please explore other pages for more info on such.
