Moe paddies day always a bit quiter when Easter falls within 2/3 weeks of paddies ,that’s always part of it as well as falling on a Sunday as this affects short haul tourism because they don’t have the bank holiday , However it was a long week with Cheltenham and traditional racing pubs were heaving all week especially up around Coburg St so the week was ahead in the round , Demographics too,it was like two days in one ,you had the pubs clearing out at 6 to 8 and were rammed again by 9 with a younger crowd , A really nice week,no trouble or hassle anywhere and people in great form , The next 3 paddies days will follow that pattern and once it falls on a thur again you will see an uptick again as people will take the Friday off and travel ,it’s the same pattern with years We will have the events centre by then anyway .and visitors can reduce their beer miles by drinking locally produced beer ,
