Do you manage or own a retail space that’s been sitting vacant?

Our pop-up shop listing connects you with creatives, entrepreneurs, and start-up businesses seeking short-term spaces to showcase their work, test new ideas, and engage with fresh audiences.

Benefits of activating your retail space with a pop-up arrangement when experiencing leasing challenges:

  • Increase leasing potential by showcasing your property to attract interest in a longer-term lease
  • Boost visibility by enhancing the street-facing presence and build positive awareness
  • Support precinct vibrancy by ensuring your property is filled

Please note: properties that are un-activated may incur high Council rates if they are classified as Un-activated Retail Land.
