All segments of the citizens equally enjoyed the mouth-watering regional specialities from different Indian states, relishing delicacies from Odisha, and international cuisines from the 16 Hockey World Cup participant nations and 24 states of India. The Night Bazaar/Flea Market enlivened Bhubaneswar’s winter nights and offered a fantastic stage for local artists, start-ups, performers, craftsmen, and innovators to present their goods.

 

The Flea Market, which was organised with the intention of promoting the handicrafts and textiles of Odisha, proved to be a remarkable crowd-puller with more than 120 locally produced goods on exhibit, making it a shopping extravaganza for the visitors.

BhuFeSto, a storytelling festival, saw people from all walks of life. Especially children listened to international and national professionals at the Kala Bhoomi, IG Park, Buddha Jayanti Park, and APJ Abdul Kalam Park. The distinguishing feature of the .FEST has been Sebbe-Au-Ebbe (Then & Now), a photo exhibition that showcased the glorious urban/ city history of Bhubaneswar, one of the 1st Planned cities of Independent India, along with the first of its kind uniquely curated experiential trails around the city of Bhubaneswar.

To the joy of the audience, Day 3 of the .FEST will include amazing performances once more in a revitalised and charming avatar.
