IT'S VINTAGE Weekend in Whanganui, and what will undoubtedly be another successful event for the region is taking over the town.
It's not an inappropriate time to think about what other ventures might work for Whanganui.
How about a night market?
Vendor stalls offering a variety of food to be eaten in the open air on balmy summer nights - what's not to like.
There is already plenty of evidence people like the market concept here. Whanganui already has a Saturday market by the river which is very popular, and the Castlecliff market, and now the really, really free koha market at Paikatore has added to the city's attractions.
