The Bahrain Tourism and Exhibitions Authority (BTEA) announced that preparations are underway for the second edition of the Manama Gold Festival 2023.
The festival will kick off from April 13 until May 27, with the participation of more than 300 gold shops in Souq Al Manama.
The Manama Gold Festival aims to promote Souq Al Manama as a desirable tourist destination by regionally publicising the event and attracting more visitors and tourists. This chapter highlights the Kingdom’s long history in the gold industry from Souq Al Manama, as well as the fact that Bahrain was the first in the region to establish clear regulations for the gold industry, organize production, and adopt exporting practices.
The festival’s activations will include weekly, instant, and grand prizes, as well as informative and artistic installations about Bahraini gold history by Bahraini artists and designers, hanging festive elements between gold shops, organising a gold museum, a pop-up market, and live music shows.
