• The Cape Town Muslim community has spoken! The Makers Halaal Market will be returning on Saturday and Sunday, 4 to 5 February, at Makers Landing in the V&A Waterfront.

    Strictly halaal, the market will showcase the best of food, design, clothing, beauty and wellness as well as entertainment for all age groups including a special play area for all the little ones.

    “We believe all of these things are bound together by a community that is like-minded, with a similar dedication to their craft. There is a common passion in all the experts who will be participating, and this passion is only amplified when brought together in a unique atmosphere created when people feast together at a table,” says curator Mohammed Adam.

    “The success of the first Makers Halaal Market has made this possible. The community is fully behind the vendors we have assembled, and we’ve dedicated ourselves to making sure we maintain a diversity and attention to detail that will make the weekend experience even better than the first one.”

    A total of 70 vendors from all over the Mother City are coming together under one roof, serving local favourites to tickle all kinds of taste buds.
