    • Hi Arya,

      I have searched through all official guides and previous years events and there is no official statement or information regarding closures.

      Reading multiple other websites, the general consensus is that the Chinese operated local food stalls at will be closed for at least the first 2 days.

      It doesn’t appear that there is any road closures around the market, so it doesn’t look like the market is closed at all, so i think it will be on a stall by stall basic.

      I will be checking in on any new developments between now and the new year and will share any new information i find.

      Thanks
      Michael
