Marché de Noël 2.0 at AF Bangalore !
Given the phenomenal success that the first edition of Marché de Noël or Christmas Mela enjoyed in 2017, it comes as no surprise that Alliance Française de Bangalore organised a bigger and better edition of the festival in 2018! The two-day flea market was held on Dec 14 and 15 on the premises of the organisation and brought together 35 stalls with the very best of handcrafted gifts, food, and music. The success of the event can be garnered from the fact that it attracted well over two thousand visitors!
The 2018 edition of Marché de Noël had something for everyone. Apart from the stalls, the event also included a Talent Show and French plays by students of AF Bangalore. There was much merry-making in the form of French Carols by kids and adults, Readings, and Musical Performances including instruments like cajon apart from solo singing. There was also a free Photo Booth wherein participants could click their photos to keep as souvenirs. All in all, it was a fun-filled two days which will be remembered fondly for a long time to come!
