A rainy morning couldn’t dampen spirits at the Gold Dust Mall in downtown Quesnel.
The outdoor mall covering two blocks of Reid Street kicked off Thursday, July 14.
A total of 45 vendors from Quesnel and across B.C. are participating and selling a wide variety of items, including food, clothing, hats, jewelry, toys, games, and more.
Airbrushing and henna tattoos are also available, as well as live music.
“We are open rain or shine,” said Quesnel Downtown Association manager Patty Morgan. “It doesn’t matter.”
Morgan encourages everyone to come down and check out the Gold Dust Mall, which will be open until 4 p.m. Sunday, July 17.
“Everyone is ready to meet and greet and excited to be hosting events again,” she added. “We’re very excited. It’s a big event for us and a lot of fun.”
