To Market, To Market
Every Saturday morning between December and April, the Budaiya Botanical Gardens are alive with the buzz of the Bahrain Farmers Market. Find loads of fresh greens, fruit and vegetables and have a leisurely breakfast at the location. The market promotes Bahrain’s agricultural products and highlights the development taking place in the Kingdom’s farming sector. It also aims to aid the sustenance of Bahraini farmers through this trade system, prepared by the Agriculture and Marine Resources Department.
The Name’s Tory
Not strictly January, since it’s New Year’s Eve, but who can resist a bit of James Bond-style merriment? Head down to Azure at the Four Seasons Hotel Bahrain Bay for a party to remember with DJ Tory Trish who’s making a return visit having wowed the partgoers at last year’s event. Tickets start at BD50 but hotel guests and those using any of the outlets get in for BD25. Why not hire a cabana and see the New Year in in style, with a personal butler at your side.
