Raipur in 2015 was unknown and unnoticed, with very few places to go for an evening out with friends or family. In an effort to provide a fun event for the entire family to enjoy together and celebrate the entrepreneurial spirit of the local community, the idea of the Local Community Bazaar was born - a place that had something interesting for everyone!
The concept amassed traction and interest and became known as a reunion for the people of Raipur to come together and support local businesses. What began as a small collection of entrepreneurs coming together in 2015 quickly snowballed into one of the most awaited and well-attended events in Chhattisgarh as of 2023. The Local’s flagship event, The Community Bazaar is a flea market that hosts a fleet of 180+ stalls that range from shopping, workshops, food, services, and more. With local singers and bands providing music and the delicious aromas wafting over from the food stalls, Raipur’s favourite social event has the perfect vibes for a chill evening with friends and family. Racking up a footfall of over 30,000 over three days, the Community Bazaar continues to grow bigger and better each year!
