Details: Do you fancy a journey around the world in 2 days visiting countries from all over the globe? No need to fly, just come along and see, smell and taste products from 5 Continents.
The 56th International Bazaar is being held on Saturday 26 (11:00 - 19:00) and Sunday 27 (10:00 - 18:00) November 2015 - Discover the world´s cultures in just one weekend...
Where? As in previous years, the International Bazaar will be opening its doors to all their friends for the traditional Bazaar weekend event at LUXEXPO. There you will encounter a certain cosmopolitan flair and, above all, an exuberant joie de vivre. Return home with the satisfying feeling that your attendance and all your purchases have contributed towards alleviating poverty here in Europe and in the developing countries.
The International Bazaar, as a charitable event, is one of the major fund-raisers in the Luxembourg calendar. There you may wander among more than 70 stands representing about 60 nations - staffed by great teams of volunteers - all offering the very best of their national wares. You will be swept along in the convivial atmosphere –charming folksongs, strumming guitars, original national handicrafts, exclusively imported goods and aromas from every continent. Find a thousand ideas for gifts ranging from fashion accessories to fine art, books, home interiors items, festive decorations from around the world , enjoy the local music, the singing and the dancing and, last but not least, a wide variety of delicious dishes and gourmet specialties to eat or take away. And why not buy tickets for 20 exciting tombolas and win some super prizes?
Last year, the Bazaar itself, as well as other activities organised by the stands, raised over €600,000 which was allocated to numerous charity projects. This year, proceeds from the Bazaar will be donated to 90 different charities nominated by the various stands. Most of the beneficiaries are organisations in Asia, Africa and Latin America, but European and Luxembourgish charities will benefit too.
The International Bazaar’s aim is to fight against poverty throughout the world. Priority is given to women, children and families. The support is wide ranging: schooling, professional training, social re-integration, medical care and training of local medical staff, etc.
Entrance to the Bazaar and parking at LUXEXPO are both free, although parking space is very limited. Public transport is highly recommended, e.g. Bus Route 1 runs from P&R Bouillon every 10 minutes directly to Parking Foire (main entrance of LUXEXPO) with several stops in the City.
Please make use of the service of a Crèche (situated near the Entrance) for children from 2-8 years.
