  Craft stalls, folk music and a costumed procession fill the trading domes and the Lyabi-Hauz for a long weekend at the end of May. It now runs every two years in odd years rather than annually — the 21st edition was in 2025, the next is due in 2027 — so confirm before planning a trip around it. Kilde ↗
