Default Very Few Events to run

Seems like a quiet month for bazaar, like no events going on and can hardly book a decent place to sell my products.
I am thinking of organising my own event. Any suggestions to locations i can book cheap so everyone here can join hands and organise a happening event to promote our own products and also to do publicity and awareness.

Will hotel be a good choice as weather will not affect us but high rental cost.

If out door, where you think will be a good place to held bazaar???

feedback to me cause i really wan to run a event on my own instead of depending on lobangs to find a place and sell my stuff

hotels may be expensive... would depend on the price/type of products you want to sell too, eg recently Club21 had their sales at Hilton

otherwise, may have to opt for cheaper hotels, and they may be quite inconvenient

outdoor - i did thought of checking with Far East Organisation if can rent the outdoor space at Far East Square. lots of tourists visiting the area, especially in weekends.

also saw another post earlier that someone thot of organising an indoor-fair at Alexandra Technopark area (the fair was later cancelled).

Where is the location you talking about at Far East Square??? Maybe i go check it out and survey.
And if you have the contacts to the management, maybe can pass to me. We can go in and negotiate with them together.

Any other suggestions for location?

for a cheaper option, you can always check with your neighbourhood CCs. they do have bazaars, just less frequent. But the rates should be much cheaper, as i usually get my tables there for less than $20. Count me in if you do organise any events~!

hi thanks for the CC flea market event update but i seriously do not consider that as a good option for my products as i sell higher end handmade jewelry. Got a company and products image issue here. But i do not mind holding food festival for my other business in such location.

i'm refering to the outdoor area in between "marquee"/oosters (not sure if i spelt it correctly) and ya kun kaya toast, think it's "metal gate". there is usually a crowd during weekday lunch time. weekend may draw tourists, depending on tourist buses.

there's another outdoor area near zhou restaurant (opposite the previous fitness first). but seldom got people walk there, and besides, there's construction going on at the roads facing that area.

i dun have the contact of the management. but it's under far east square is under far east organisation.
