Winter Night Market Performance Revealed


We have written about the success of this year’s Winter Night Market but only in terms of general impressions from a few general merchandise traders who are lucky enough to trade at the night market.

Well now we have more definitive advice from management – “Opening night was up 15% over prior year and the past 2 weeks have been up over 50% on the same weeks last year. Overall, after 3 weeks we are running 40% ahead of last year in terms of visitor count. This has been an outstanding result and has been driven by the delivery of a great product that appeals to today’s consumer and exceeds their expectations combined with a highly engaging marketing campaign. Trader feedback has been extremely positive including general merchandise traders who have been delighted with crowds and sales results.”

The terminology that stands out is “a great product….that exceeds expectations.” We can’t help but wonder what could be done with a clean slate for the day market.

Surely, it's obvious - pour as much effort into the day market as the Night Markets....."
So would that effort involve curating a market like the night market or something different? - Ed.

Great - thank you - Ed
