IT’S been 20 years since Richmond Marketplace opened on March Street, and the centre will be holding a series of celebratory events from Friday, May 5 until Sunday, May 7.
On Friday, fans of the Trolls computer-animated movie will have the opportunity to meet the characters Poppy and Branch from 10am to 2pm in the centre.
On Saturday and Sunday from 10am until 2pm, there will be free entertainment for children, including face painting, cupcake decorating, and encounters with farm animals courtesy of Kid Zoo.
As part of the birthday celebrations, the Marketplace is running a ‘20 Days to Win’ promotion for customers to win a $400 shopping spree every day until Tuesday, May 9. Make a purchase at the centre and enter a unique online code on the Richmond Marketplace website for your chance to win.
Richmond Marketplace Senior Marketing Manager, Tracey Thomas, said the 20th birthday is a huge milestone for centre management and store staff.
“We’re looking forward to toasting its continued success for many years to come, and celebrating with our 1,000 staff, 60-plus retailers and local customers over the coming weeks,” she said.
