Overview
What Makes It Awesome? The Goa Collective Bazaar at HillTop is a Friday night flea market that hosted its first edition in 2021. With close to 100 stalls, live music, a bar, a kids’ area, a healing area and dozens of delicious food options, The Goa Collective Bazaar is a unique set-up that comes with the promise of ‘everything curated with love’. The Backstory Asha Rao, the Bangalore-based founder of Soul Sante, made Goa her home years ago. Her love for hosting markets went down so well with the creative folks based out of Goa or staying her for long periods that soon it became a movement. She was joined by Starling (the owner of HillTop), his fiancé Luna, and Katja (an old-time hippie and designer) in her idea of a curated flea market in Goa. Everything took shape in 2021 and The Goa Collective Bazaar threw its doors open for the first time that year. In 2022, they hosted the first market on November 29 with renewed vigour, and 2023 only promises to get bigger and better. The best way to experience The Goa Collective Bazaar is to immerse yourself in all that is on offer and let the vibes take over.
