THE Old Bus Depot Markets, has signed its first ever long term lease.

The occasion was marked with the signing of a ceremonial certificate by Andrew Barr together with the Old Bus Depot Markets Directors, Diane Hinds and Morna Whiting.

“We are thrilled to have secured this long term lease for the Old Bus Depot Markets to continue operating within our gorgeous heritage listed old bus depot,” said Diane.

“Having operated our markets successfully in the Old Bus Depot in Kingston since 1998, Canberrans and visitors to the ACT know where our home is. Signing the long term lease means we have security as a major part of the Kingston Foreshore arts and culture precinct going forward.

“The move will also build the markets’ stallholders’ confidence to continue to invest in the Old Bus Depot Markets now and into the future.

“We would like to thank the ACT Government, and more than anything we are very enthusiastic about the urban renewal of the Kingston area,” concluded Ms Hinds.
