The application window for expressions of interest to take part in the Pop-Ups on the Bay initiative this year is closed.
Development and Tourism Coordinator Elisha Purchase says they sent out 36 information packages over a two-week span and got back 16 submissions from interested businesses.
Those applications will be reviewed over the next couple of weeks, with the final number of pop-ups chosen to be based on the mix of businesses and the service capacity to operate them at West Zwick’s Park.
Once finalized, the plan is for the shops to open on May 28 and run from Friday to Sunday in June, Tuesday to Sunday in July and August, and back to just weekends until the end of September.
