Started in 2017, Mums@PLAY is a platform that brings mums together, “mompreneurs” in particular, who run small businesses mostly from home, offering them an opportunity and a common space to talk about their products or service through bazaars, and empowering them through workshops that are based on various topics related to managing their businesses.
Mums@PLAY Events consist of friendly one-day bazaars, weekly pop-ups and business workshops. Our bazaars are held in the vibrant and spacious venues attracting a dedicated footfall of 200+ people. Our events have a good mix of vendor stalls selling hand-made and ethically sourced products ranging from clothing, jewellery, accessories, personalised stationery, fair trade toys, essential oils and even services like party planners, nutritionists and more.
Over the years our events have received good support through local media and magazines like Expat Parent, Southside, Expat Living, Time Out and on online portals The HK Hub, Little Steps and Sassy Mama- to name a few.
Our event visitors who are our biggest supporters are inherently Hong Kong women, mums in particular, who attend the bazaar to shop, wine, dine along with their friends. In the past our bazaars have been held in Cyberport, Central, Causeway Bay, Sheung Wan and consist of local restaurants, co-working spaces, learning centres wo do well with our support and the traffic that we generate. The atmosphere at our events is casual and relaxed and our guests tend to spend a couple of hours browsing through the stalls, entertaining their toddlers at the play area or just general networking.
We also offer to host market fairs for corporates.
