Is your sports club thinking about doing a recruitment drive? Is your business looking to expand its clientele in a new and innovative manner? Do you want to display your products in an exciting fresh setting?
Then look no further than the newest event of the Launceston calendar in February 2015!
The Launceston and Tamar Valley Tourism Association is excited to announce the inaugural LTVTA Twilight Market.
The market will be held at the Seaport Precinct on Friday 27th February 2015 and is supported and embraced by the Launceston City Council, Hawthorn Football Club, and the businesses of the Seaport precinct. Hot on the heels of the successful Sundown Cinema series held at the Seaport in October and November, Seaport is expanding into a hub for the community.
Far from being a traditional market, the event will feature celebrity and Masterchef runner-up of 2012, Ben Millbourne, hosting a cook-off competition with members of the Hawthorn Football Club in a quest to seek the handiest Hawk in the kitchen.
The market will also feature entertainment from local bands, dance companies and entertainers, as well as two special Zones – a health and wellbeing zone and a special Kids Zone with bouncy castle and face painting. Food and wine stalls will be available for dining, as well as the restaurants of the Seaport area.
The LTVTA Twilight Market seeks to encourage an increased length of stay for visitors to Launceston by capitalising on two of Launceston’s major annual events – the Launceston Cup and the NAB Cup. The market also coincides with the Tourism Tasmania marketing campaign “Go Behind the Scenery” and by showcasing local businesses and produce, aims to give both visitors and locals the opportunity to experience firsthand the hidden gems that Tasmania has to offer.
The LTVTA is seeking expressions of interest from potential market stall holders to be involved in this exciting project – from businesses that have market experience to artists wanting to display to a wider audience to social and sports clubs expanding their membership.
