By a mum who lives for the holiday magic

The holidays are here, and if you’re anything like me, that means one thing—time to pack the family into the car and dive headfirst into the festive madness! From sparkling lights to local goodies, there’s nothing better than spending the weekend exploring Bahrain’s festive markets, fairs, and sales. Whether you’re hunting for unique gifts, indulging in yummy treats, or just looking for an excuse to get the kids out of the house, these events have you covered.

Why I Love Bahrain’s Festive Markets

Let’s face it, the holidays can be stressful (hello, endless to-do lists), but there’s something magical about wandering through a market with the smell of cinnamon in the air, holiday tunes playing, and the kids’ faces lighting up at every stall. It’s a chance to slow down, soak in the season, and make memories together.
