The Tap Siac Craft Market in Autumn will again be held on two weekends, slated to kick off next Thursday at 6 p.m. in Praça do Tap Seac.
The craft market will be held from November 14 to 17 and November 21 to 24, according to a Cultural Affairs Bureau (IC) statement last night, this year featuring over 220 handicraft and creative gastronomy stalls, 64 creative handicraft workshops and a total of 47 music performances.
The statement said that the stalls will be run by cultural and creative practitioners from Hong Kong, the mainland, Macau, Malaysia, South Korea and China’s Taiwan region, showcasing original products ranging from daily necessities to handmade products.
Meanwhile, the 47 music performances will involve singers from Hong Kong, Macau, and the mainland. Among them, Hong Kong singer-songwriter Kiri T will be a guest performer at the craft market’s opening ceremony, according to the statement. The singer produced and released the Cantonese single “Dear Kiwi” in 2022 and the chart-topping single “You Gotta Screw Up At Least Once” in 2024, which according to Wikipedia, had 1.2 million streams on Swedish audio streaming and media service provider Spotify in just one and a half months.
The craft market will be open from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Thursdays and Fridays, and from 3 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays.
