     Bidders for LNY fair stalls must be at least 18 years old and ordinarily resident in Hong Kong.

     Anyone can bid for more than one stall. A bidder must pay the bid price and register in person with his or her own name as the licensee of the stall immediately after successfully bidding for a stall. The bidder is also required to sign at once a licence agreement with the FEHD, or they will forfeit the rights to operate the stall.

     An FEHD spokesman said that successful bidders shall comply with all the stipulations and provisions as set out in the licence agreement including not to assign, sublet, transfer or otherwise part with any of the benefits or obligations of the licence agreement. Otherwise, the department is entitled to terminate the agreement and the licensee shall immediately vacate the stall and the licence fee will not be refunded.

     Details of the 2018 LNY fairs such as the public notice, the locations and layouts of the fair venues, commodities allowed for sale at the fair stalls, open auction arrangements and related rules, and sample of the licence agreement, are available at the FEHD website (www.fehd.gov.hk).
