Introduction

Hawkesbury City Council (“Council”) owns Windsor Mall, the paved road reserve is closed to public vehicle access and is known as the part of George Street located between Baker and Fitzgerald Street, Windsor. Windsor Mall provides a public space for residents and visitors with various street furniture and the water wheel located within.

Premises adjoining Windsor Mall can obtain an annual permit to use an area out front their shops for outdoor dining or footpath trading.

Council is undertaking works in Windsor Mall to revitalise the area, it is anticipated these works have commenced and are anticipated to be completed in June/July 2025.

Markets currently operate in Windsor Mall on Sundays, however they relocated to Howe Park during revitalisation works. It is proposed that the market operator will commence after the revitalisation works are completed.

The market operator will also be responsible for organising music entertainment/buskers in the Mall for the duration of the markets.

Council is seeking offers from suitably experienced market operators to regularly run the Markets in Windsor Mall on Sundays, which will help promote economic development in the Hawkesbury area. The successful proponent will be required to enter into a licence agreement.
