Ottawa Chinatown Bazaar
Ottawa Chinatown Bazaar å人è¡å€§é
Event Details:
11am – 6pm
Sunday, August 20th;
Saturday, October 21st.
Ottawa Chinatown is traditionally the cultural hub where a variety of cultures blends and grow. To enhance Chinatownâs attractiveness as a Multicultural Village with an Asian Flavour, and to bring more foot traffic to the neighbourhood and ultimately to help the community to regain its vibrancy, Somerset Street Chinatown BIA is proposing to host Ottawa Chinatown Bazaar, which will be another signature event of our community.
In support of the âBuy Localâ initiative, Chinatown Bazaar will only accept vendors from Ottawa, and the goods sold will include crafts, artwork, jams, cookies, clothing, jewelry, home goods, souvenirs, flowers, and seasonal products. No products that contain alcohol or cannabis will be allowed at Chinatown Bazaar. No food preparation will be allowed on site.
Chinatown BIA, as the event host, owns the brand name of Chinatown Bazaar, and will provide necessary support to the organizer. Chinatown BIA seeks no financial gains from Chinatown Bazaar. The event will be organized by a third party, who will be responsible for the operations of Chinatown Bazaar.
It is estimated that Chinatown Bazaar will bring more than 10,000 visitors to Chinatown. Once fully established, Chinatown Bazaar will be a signature Chinatown event where local residents, tourists and business owners gather on Saturdays. It is our intent to encourage visitors to Chinatown Bazaar to explore the businesses in Chinatown while they are at the Bazaar.
Chinatown BIA will encourage vendors to donate some of their goods to Ottawa CHEO and / or other charities. Moreover, Chinatown BIA will sponsor at least one free both for charities or not-for-profit organizations at each and every Chinatown Bazaar event.
