This was confirmed by Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio on Monday.
“Preparations need to be made niani sama sa raffling sa slot. Mag-set up ang atoang Roxas Night Market team. Mura ta ug nagsugod sa uno ani because it’s been two years but we already set the date nga March 24 ang atoang Roxas Night Market,” the mayor said.
Mayor Sara reminded Dabawenyos to wear their face masks when they are not eating or drinking.
Dr. Michelle Schlosser, the Davao Municipal Covid-19 Task Force's spokesperson, revealed earlier this month that the city administration of Davao was considering developing adequate regulations and procedures that would be strictly followed to safeguard the safety of sellers and night market participants.
Roxas Night Market is the city’s popular destination for street food, “ukay-ukay” (used clothes), and massage services.
In November 2020, Mayor Sara ordered the closure of the popular Roxas Night Market for the second time after Davao City was reverted to general community quarantine (GCQ) due to the surge of Covid-19.
It was first closed on March 12, 2020, and reopened on Sept. 12, 2020, from 5 p.m. until 11 p.m. from Mondays to Sundays at 25 percent capacity.
