Hyderabad loves its bazaars. From the festive Dawat-e-Ramzan expo to the iconic Numaish at Nampally, exhibitions have always been a favourite outing for families, foodies, and shopaholics. This October, the city is set to welcome something new yet familiar, the District Bazaar.
After creating a buzz during Ramzan earlier this year with its debut season, District Bazaar is returning and it’s happening outside the holy month.
For Hyderabadis who thought such vibrant shopping carnivals were only a Ramzan special, this is a pleasant surprise. With shopping, food, music, workshops, and even fireworks on the cards, District Bazaar promises to be much more than just a marketplace.

From Dawat-e-Ramzan to District Bazaar
The brain behind this initiative is Anam Mirza, who has already gifted Hyderabad the hugely popular Dawat-e-Ramzan, known for its festive shopping and food stalls. With District Bazaar, Anam introduced a fresh format during Ramzan 2025, and the response was overwhelming. Now, she and her team are bringing it back in October, proving that exhibitions in Hyderabad can be a year-round affair.
