Raeeth, a popular party destination in Goa’s Vagator town, has launched a new vertical to encourage local artists, artisans and creative personas. Its Saturday sundowner is loaded with a chosen selection of diverse artists, small enterprises, and activities to encourage independent initiatives by local artisans.
Visitors can shop for upcycled clothing, handcrafted jewellery, candles, art, home décor, get body art, or learn about your past, present, and future with a tarot card reading at Raeeth.
Curated by Shrishti Bhandari and Adityavardhan Jadwani, they created this concept to add a unique twist to the nightlife party vibe. The previous two popups we created garnered a lot of positive feedback.
It provides a one-of-a-kind nighttime experience with live music, delectable cuisine, and fashionable shopping outlets. While shopping for antiques, funky jewellery, souvenirs, and handicrafts, you can eat a Mediterranean gastronomic delight from Raeeth’s curated menu.
“The flea market provides mind-blowing experiences, including the opportunity to exchange books, watch movies under the stars, listen to live music, and of course consume your favourite cocktail the whole time. These enjoyable activities will keep you occupied throughout the weekend. Not only that but there will be a magic show and a variety of other activities throughout the day,” said Gaurav Parikh, partner at Raeeth.
“The goal behind the flea market is to encourage local artisans as Goa is a melting pot of cultures and everyone here is so creative. Due to the pandemic, many have moved here from all over India and set up a base here and the flea market is to encourage a melange of art, culture, music and dance,” said Rodney, partner at Raeeth.
Raeeth has recreated that luxe yet leisurely vibes with a level of playful and effortless indulgence which stimulates the senses and immediately puts you into a good mood with excellent food, ambience, music, and cocktails. With its cabanas, poolside vibe, performance-based eating experience, and flea market set-up, it is making Goa and specifically Vagator a uniquely cultural and fun experience.
