To flea or not to flea?
10 am to 10 pm: Think of the goodies sold by footloose, affable hippies at a Goan flea market. We bet you have colour, quirks and endless choice on your mind. Now, think of the same, minus Goa. That’s The Lil Flea for you, who brings a unique experience to the city. Colourful tents will showcase more than 100 pop-up shops selling clothes, footwear, bags, accessories, furniture, handicraft, artefacts, arts and crafts, antiques, pottery, home décor and old books. Two music zones will see some upcoming singers and songwriters croon through the day. When the music takes a break, you could enjoy some globally-acclaimed Oscar-winning short films or participate in workshops and quirky games. Some of the brands you could pick up include Udd, Design Pataki, Studio Alag, Roti Kapda aur Makaan, Vox-pop clothing, Dash of bling and Sienna store from Kolkata, which has some great pottery, textiles and folk art made by artisans at the Shanti Niketan.
