Our prayers have been answered. Mumbai’s hipster flea market is coming to Delhi in September bedecked in fairy lights and buntings and bringing lots of shopping, live music and food. Start planning a whole day {or two} out with family and friends and clear your calendars {Sept 22-24}.
Best News Ever! Mumbai’s Most Loved Outdoor Market, The Lil Flea, Is Coming To Delhi
What Is It?
Who Is It For?
Everyone who likes a day out with the squad doing un-typical stuff. Music will fill the air with bands you might have heard at The Piano Man Jazz Club. Burgers, pizzas, bakes and cakes will be hot and fresh, alongside a host of experimental & world foods from home chefs & upcoming food brands. There’ll be so much of feel-good shopping for clothes, home decor, accessories and knick-knacks and your chance to discover cool homegrown brands from across the country that’s so far been devoid of your love and attention.
Why Should I Go For It?
Browse through some of these photos from the Mumbai editions over the last three years and you won’t ask us this question. It’s outdoors, it’s got indie musicians, home bakers and fashion brands bringing everything from upcycled goodies to funky shoes to contemporary fashion. Desserts, dream catchers, games, workshops, performance art… Like seriously, why would you give this a miss?
To give you more incentive, here’s one of the many accounts of what it looked like in Mumbai.
Anything Else?
We aren’t sure if they’re going to screen movies or let us exchange books. Or if there’ll be beer pong but what’s life without a little bit of mystery, right?
They have still not finished finalising the line-up of bands and the stalls that’ll set shop. So, if you know a friend of a friend who makes the most exquisite lamps or never-eaten-before cupcakes or foods, fill this form and let the curators of The Lil Flea know about your brand. If they love what you’re making, they’ll have you set shop. YAY!
We’ve already seen the Nehru Park Jazz Fest, The Grub Fest, The Palate Fest and many a beer fest. Now, it’s time to give this new baby a shot.
