The HBKU Bazaar has got to be one of the most exciting things to do in Qatar this weekend. Located at the Student Center in Education City, the bazaar has a great variety of local and non-local brands and businesses selling some really creative and unique items.

The vendors are over 30 in number ranging from food, desserts, fashion, accessories, art and so much more.

The bazaar is also great for families, with lots of children-friendly activities to watch or participate in like cupcake decorating, a ceramic painting station and even a live Turkish ice-cream display.

There are small kiosks selling items of clothing, besides several others with hair accessories, jewellery and a seemingly popular make up stall.

The make up stall features some of the popular international favourites like Anastasia Beverley Hills, Huda Beauty, Morphe and Kylie Cosmetics, among others.

Accessory sales also include handmade ones by local artists like phone covers, gift items and several other interesting and unique things.

A printing kiosk is also present, where they print items like mugs and T-Shirts on the spot. Stalls decorated with flowers, and beautiful arrangements are present as well.

The bazaar is also teeming with food stalls, right from local Qatari cuisine to Indian and Pakistani. The dessert options are also several with ice creams, cakes, mini pancakes, cheesecakes and so much more. These include local Qatari and Arabic sweets too.

Whether you are craving spicy kebabs, seafood or some machboos, you will pretty much find everything here, with good prices as well. What's interesting is that a lot of these stalls are serving fresh!

Kids can rejoice because they have a dedicated ceramic painting area to unleash their creativity. The prices are mentioned at the bottom of the object and average at around QR 100.

The entrance to the bazaar itself is free of charge, and open to the public.
