The Maldives Night Market opens this evening from 8:00pm at the surf point in Male, and will run for the next 10 days ahead of Ramadan.

The bazaar is organised by the Maldives National Chamber of Commerce and Industry (MNCCI) and will feature 450 tables running from Tuscaloosa Café to the State Electric Company (STELCO) building.

MNCCI Treasurer Ahmed Adeeb told newspaper Haveeru that in the event of poor weather the duration of the night market would be extended.

“We’ve put up a fence just in case the waves get too high,” Adheeb told Haveeru.
