The city of Nyon is looking to revamp its popular Saturday market. Although it's generally accepted the market works well, many say it could do with refreshing.

The city is considering moving it slightly and rearranging the stands to provide more space for shoppers and provide some forms of entertainment. The number of stall holders, currently around 30, could be increased. 

The city council says it will select market stalls carefully to highlight local produce and to complement local businesses. 

The changes will be made at the end of August.
