Review of the 2025 International Bazaar

The 2025 edition of the International Bazaar was held in mid-November at the LuxExpo The Box exhibition center in Kirchberg. Over the course of three days, more than 45,000 visitors strolled among the 60 international stands, each representing a country or region of the world. Gastronomy, crafts, jewelry, accessories, and decorative objects delighted the eyes and taste buds of those curious and passionate about cultural discoveries. Beyond cultural discovery, the International Bazaar is above all a charity event. All proceeds are donated to humanitarian and social projects around the world. Every purchase of a product or specialty contributes to local and international initiatives, making it a truly "solidarity-based shopping" experience. More than €650,000 was raised for 45 charities.

History of the International Bazaar in Luxembourg

From traditional fairs to the International Bazaar

The history of the International Bazaar is not a recent one. For a long time, the Luxembourg Church organized small local fairs to raise funds to help the most disadvantaged. However , following changes in Luxembourg's policy on welcoming foreigners, these small local fairs evolved in the 1960s. A larger organization was set up at the national level . Over time, it became the International Bazaar in Luxembourg. After starting with eight stands representing different nationalities in 1963, the International Bazaar now brings together more than 60 nationalities. They share a common goal: to share their culture, specialties, and crafts and to offer their help for community projects. Today, more than 1,500 volunteers of all nationalities join the event each year. They help to make the International Bazaar a place where cultural diversity has only grown over the years. Thanks to this creative energy, the event now offers an atmosphere conducive to encounters and multiculturalism. The spirit is one of celebration and mutual aid.
