Eid-ul Fitr is a day-long celebration marking the end of the fasting period and the start of the new Islamic month. With it only being day six of Ramadan, Eid may seem lightyears away. But what often happens is that, with what feels like a blink of an eye, the month flies by and before you know it, Eid is next weekend.
Suffice it to say, it makes the most sense to get as much Eid prep – your outfit, treats, goods and gifts – out of the way as quickly or conveniently as possible in order to make the most of the blessed month and reap its spiritual benefits.
Cue Revere Markets and Events and its annual Eid Boutique – among a few other specially curated markets.
Local businesses and some of Cape Town’s most loved brands within the Muslim community come together to exhibit their latest ranges, just in time for Eid. This weekend, Parkade 3 of Cavendish Square will once again transform into a one-stop market for all your local desires.
You can look forward to beautiful crafts, gifting inspo, beauty and skincare, savoury and sweet treats and the latest in modest fashion and trends.
Whether you’re on a mission to grab everything you need for Eid, exploring modest fashion or simply looking to discover something new, the Eid Boutique market offers a treasure trove teeming with some of the best local gems the Mother City has to offer under one roof.
Here’s a peek at what you’ll be able to find at the market this weekend:
