Mumbai Shopping Festival 2018

Food truck was the main reason I wanted to go to Worli sea face. They would be parked only this week end closer to my house, next week they would be parked at Malad and then week after that at Powai.



My friend and I decided to go to Worli seaface and experience the Mumbai Festival. The ambience is very vibrant along the promenade, with food trucks on one side and stall selling various articles on the other side. A small stage, inserted between stalls has various performing artists.

There is a fair discount of over 50% on every article. There are artefacts, clothes, footwear, jewellery and many other knick knacks along the promenade. At one stall there was even a Karaoke singers. At the end of shopping lane there were tandem riders enjoying double seat bicycle rides.



Mumbai festival was inaugurated on 12th January 2018 and will be in progress till 31st January. Maharastra Government on lines of Dubai festival has organised twenty days Mumbai festival.

The name "Bombay" was derived from 'Bom Bahia' (The Good Bay),

.... a name given by Portuguese sailor Francis Almeida, in 1508 ....“Bounce back Mumbai” .....as it is called by the locals, it is a city that has been through a lot in the recent past – floods, bomb blasts, riots – and come out stronger each time.
