Retailers have until Sunday to register as participating outlets in the nationwide Shop Bahrain festival.

Shop Bahrain is set to be the biggest event of its kind with a unique 30-day celebration of Bahrain’s heritage, hospitality and tourism offering for the entire family running from December 24 until January 23.

We want to encourage all retailers to participate in the much-anticipated shopping festival and be a part of an unforgettable experience for shoppers in Bahrain and the region.

Our aim is to energise the retail sector and offer people unique and diverse retail experience with unbeatable bargains and promotions.

The dedicated retailer of arts, crafts, and equestrian equipment, Things-To-Do, was the first retail outlet to register.

This year, it celebrates its 40th anniversary and through its participation in the festival, the retailer will be able to offer customers a unique, rewarding shopping experience and provide them with special offers during the 30 days of festivities.

The festival will also host a number of fun-filled activities such as the VIVA Shop & Skate, the largest outdoor skating rink housed outside Al A’ali Shopping Complex, as well as The Family Fair an exciting carnival that will be held during the New Year’s Eve weekend at Prince Khalifa bin Salman Park.

And, Al Riwaq’s ‘The Nest’ and the successful ‘Taste Tour’ in Adliya will also make a comeback. The festival will also include raffles, special offers and discounts for all visitors and residents to enjoy.
