Amoret D’Arrigo, marketing manager at Springs Mall, says the mall will open to the public at 8am on Thursday.
“There may be some queuing involved at the individual stores if they have opening day specials so, to my knowledge, people can start lining up outside the stores from 8am,” says Amoret.
After that, the official opening time will be at 9am.

“The speeches and formalities, which are scheduled at 10am for 10.30am, will be short and sweet,” says Amoret.
