The night markets are an opportunity for small local businesses to display and sell their products and for visitors to mingle with locals and try specialty foods. During the 2017 fiscal year night markets, over $145,000 in total sales was made in 22 night markets by 457 vendors. For the February 2nd Night Market, a total of $5,616.00 in sales was made. Space is limited, so reserve your table early if you would like to sell and display your products. The deadline to sign up for a table at the Night Market is Thursday before 5:00pm at the PVA Office in Medalaii. If you and your group have a budding talent and would like to perform at future Night Markets, please contact Kate Mad at 488-1930/2793.
