The Culture, Sports and Tourism Bureau announced on Wednesday it was “inviting the market to submit expressions of interest” to enhance the use of the terminal. A spokesman added that this initiative is part of an action plan aimed at developing cruise tourism and “to elevate the function of the KTCT as a cruise terminal for all.”
He noted that in addition to cruise operation facilities, the terminal features an ancillary commercial area of around 5,600 square metres (60,277 sq ft) and public space on the rooftop and second floor.
The bureau was seeking proposals for “conventional retail or other purposes”, he added.
Authorities emphasised their commitment to promoting the terminal for hosting more non-cruise and commercial events during off-peak seasons and on days with fewer cruises.
