Visit London's Chief Executive James Bidwell said that Camden Market is "still going strong and welcoming visitors".
According to him, the fire only affected a small part of the market and it is still open for business.
Reconstruction begins
A recovery package has been launched to get the traders in Camden Market back to business.
The three-hours-long fire severely damaged about 35 stalls, six shops and the Hawley Arms, a landmark of the area frequented by the alternative artists.
Three of the damaged shops were already demolished, and reconstruction works at the Hawley Arms might take six months, according to the owners.
As part of the plan, Mayor of London's office announced that it would cooperate with Camden Council and other local organisations in order to support the reconstruction of the market.
The London Development Agency chief executive Manny Lewis said that, to ensure Camden remains a vibrant cultural hub, they are "committed to getting those businesses affected by the fire back up and running as soon as possible" .
Music Festival goes as planned
The 7th Annual Camden Crawl Festival organizers stated that it will be held as planned, despite the fire damaged the Hawley Arms pub, one of the venues for live presentations and parties during this year’s event (April 18-19).
“Camden’s musical history will continue to be celebrated now more than ever, and we are looking into ways how the festival will be able to help those affected by the fire," said organiser Lisa Paulon.
Camden is the fourth most popular tourist place in London, attracting about 500,000 people each week with its open air and indoor markets, bars, clubs, shops and restaurants.
