You can also indulge in the flavours of Africa with a delectable selection of traditional and modern African cuisine.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe also have a kiddies corner with a jumping castle, face painting, and kids entertainment with a caregiver on standby, while the adults are moving around and enjoying what the exhibitors have to offer,\u201d said Motsamai.<\/p>\n<p>She added that the live entertainment is sponsored by Pacofs and the Department of Sports, Arts and Culture for the day. She also said various competitions and prizes include the Best-styled Stall, the Most Unique, Locally Produced or Manufactured Product, and the Most Popular Stall of the Day. \u201cThe first 50 people (excluding children) to arrive will get a promotional pack from one of our sponsors,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>For local vendors and artisans who wish to showcase their crafts and wares, the Bloemfontein Flea Market is the perfect platform.<\/p>\n<p>To participate, simply send an email to <span \n                data-original-string=\"HN43mlOi0EMc9YEdME+wCA==f1aiHzVlEhCrcDDM\/NtgQjBDSCoAvjv+E+lOlxnZoHA1yI=\"\n                class=\"apbct-email-encoder\"\n                title=\"This contact has been encoded by Anti-Spam by CleanTalk.
