Immerse in a holistic craft experience brought by Dastkar through its lifestyle event in Bengaluru city - second time around, this year.

Although the BENGALURU DASTKAR BAZAAR is an annual feature in the city of Bengaluru, this year the organization has decided to host the craft bazaar again owing to the massive success and demand during the February bazaar. The Bazaar is a part of Dastkar’s efforts to provide relief and revive the lost livelihoods of craftspeople across India post- the second year of Covid.

The BENGALURU DASTKAR BAZAAR will be held at the Jayamahal Palace Hotel on Jayamahal Road from 1st to 7th September 2021.  

Dastkar brings the most authentic experience of Indian handicrafts by bringing a confluence of more than 100 craft groups and craftpreneurs from 20+ states across India within one arena. 

With this initiative, Dastkar strives to provide a platform to the craft groups to kickstart production and create marketing platforms to sell their products, thus sustaining the craft communities.

The BENGALURU DASTKAR BAZAAR will offer a wide range of lifestyle accessories, silver jewelry, and adornments, metal crafts, carved furniture & decorative products, pottery & ceramics, basketry & fiber crafts, leather products, traditional paintings, a variety of hand-woven, embroidered, block printed textiles and much more from every corner of the country.
