Last year, things looked bleak for Sheringham market, with both the numbers of traders and punters declining.
And now a year on traders are feeling buoyant as others say more can be done to support them as the event still draws customers.
Michael Andrew, owner of Fat Buddha Dumplings, said: "It’s very tough for a lot of traders now.
"Market traders have been replaced by online shopping.

"It’s good that the council are still putting effort in to try and promote it.
"Cooperation is the law of market traders, and a rising tide lifts all ships."
Mark Wye-Harris, who runs a books and miscellanous stall, has liaised with the organising council on behalf of the market traders.
He said: "The council are listening to the traders, but we need to do more events to create more interest.
"We want to attract new stalls with more variety.

However, there is no doubt that the market still faces challenges.
Kerry Smith, of Just Hessian, said: "People aren’t spending money, they don’t have any money."
"The council could do more to support us.
"Everyone you speak to says they love it and wished it was bigger.'
It is said with plans to draw in more variety of stalls and events over the coming year, Sheringham market has potential to bounce back from the brink.
Mr Wye-Harris added: "We have to build on momentum."
In May 2023 fears were raised Sheringham could lose its market at an annual town council meeting.
It was claimed only a third of the traders that were there before the pandemic were still attending.
Sheringham market takes place every Wednesday and Saturday at the North Norfolk District Council owned Station Road car park.
