About Souq AlSabt
Souq AlSabt is a cultural and creative market organised by Al Mashtal. It brings artisans, designers and independent businesses together in an interactive space where they can show their products and meet visitors directly.
After its first edition, the market returns with a new season featuring a curated selection of creative products, traditional and contemporary crafts, and local food and flavours, alongside workshops and interactive experiences.
The market aims to be a platform that supports creative businesses, helps them reach new audiences, and strengthens the presence of craft and design in the community.
