Central Coast Council is seeking expressions of interest from local businesses interested in hiring a 20ft pop-up bar container at various locations across the Coast throughout the 2022-23 financial year.
Council Director Community and Recreation Services, Mel Smith, said hiring the bar container provides local businesses the opportunity to help enhance visitation to the region’s town centres and offer renewed chances for communities to unite.
“We are thrilled to be facilitating the Coast’s incredible line up of businesses creating new, pop-up experiences for communities across the region,” Smith said.
“Local businesses can now apply to have the pop-up container delivered to an approved location of their choice and can enjoy the convenience of a highly-equipped pop-up bar with flexible options to hire for up to three months at an affordable cost.
“With the impacts of floods and intense rain this year, we’re looking forward to seeing local businesses present their communities with new opportunities to get out and renew social connections while experiencing the vibrancy our stunning Central Coast landscape has to offer.”
Businesses are encouraged to submit their big ideas before Wednesday, August 31.
Council Administrator, Rik Hart, said local eateries and businesses can have confidence that Council is keen to continue prioritising opportunities that connect them to the region’s communities.
“This initiative aims to shine a light on the spectacular mix of businesses and venues that call the Central Coast home, and I look forward to seeing the impact this has on town centres and communities across the region.
“This is a chance for businesses to express their interest in offering residents and visitors a new, pop-up experience and to get involved in delivering engaging spaces that boost the local economy, and further contribute to the overall ambience of our Central Coast community.”
Businesses interested in hiring the equipped pop-up bar container throughout the 2022-23 financial year can complete an Expression of Interest online at centralcoast.nsw.gov.au/EOI.
