We’re thrilled to announce the second Night Shift Session with Mainstreet Australia for 2023: From Vacant to Vibrant.

Every placemaker, eco dev professional and main street centre manager everywhere is faced with the challenge of working with local businesses to make retail areas more visible, vibrant and accessible and to build long-term sustainability and resilience.

Learn and be inspired by our panel of experts on how to implement current and best practice strategies that will take your main street from vacant to vibrant.

Questions we’ll answer:

• How can we implement successful initiatives to attract new tenants, retain existing tenants, or activate vacant tenancies and spaces to improve the experience of shoppers?
• How can we bring back the dying art of visual merchandising to encourage more creativity and innovative shop front windows and lure more people to main streets?
• How can we develop better relationships with landlords to incentivise greater activation of short term rentals and pop ups?
• How can we foster the diversification of businesses on main streets, to ensure the “right” balance between, retail, services and lifestyle businesses?
