Sangria
In the spirit of gathering all those who create and sell together in one place, Sangria’s version of the "fashion bazaar" will be this weekend’s Family Fiesta. On both Friday and Saturday, people are welcome to come by the Sangria garden to peruse booths of everything from clothing and jewelry to paintings, accessories, bed linens and teeth whitening. The two-day affair promises to be activity-packed. Visitors can have lunch at Sangria for a mid shopping day break–minimum charge for sitting is 100 per person. Entrance to the bazaar is free.
Azhar Park
Another bazaar is taking place on Friday 5 November at Azhar Park. Perhaps at a lower budget range, the ‘7-Touch’ Bazaar appears to include jewelry, children’s clothing and women’s clothing and accessories. The event may be worth stopping by if only for Azhar Park’s beautiful landscape coupled with the positive weather forecast for the weekend. You can pass by Azhar Park to see the bazaar any time from 11AM to 11PM.
Suq El-Osra
Suq El-Osra is setting up its annual open air market at the Montessori International Preschool in 6th of October this weekend. The fair will include cards by Al-Masry Al-Youm featuring Yasmine al-Mehairy as well as kids clothing, 2nd hand kids gear from the Midan al-Osra organization and other items including toys, hand crafts and accessories. The school grounds are located in the Green Heights compound and the market will be open on both Friday and Saturday from 11AM to 3PM.
