KOCHI: Here is an opportunity for Kochiites to go shopping late at night. The ‘WENderland Midnight Market’ is set to entertain shoppers from 4pm to midnight, at Rajendra Maidan on April 5 and 6.

Visitors can shop at an array of stalls, choosing anything from jewellery, clothes and toys to books and more.
Visitors can also engage in thrilling games and activities at the game zone by Decathlon, the event’s sports partner.
The Midnight Market is supported by the Cochin International Airport Limited (CIAL), with Kochi Metro serving as the official travel partner.
