THE EASTER SPIRIT ISN'T GONE, IT'S IN MALKERNS

Tomorrow, Saturday 11, April 2026, the beloved Malandela Lifestyle’s precinct opens its doors for an Easter Market that promises to be one of the most heart warming ways to close out the holiday season. Running from 10am to 4pm, the market brings together over 35 local vendors across food and drink, fashion and accessories, and lifestyle and activities, all set against the lush, welcoming backdrop that Malandela’s does so effortlessly well.

For the little ones, Easter egg hunts and kids’ games will keep the holiday magic alive for one last glorious afternoon. For the grown-ups, the vendor lineup reads like a carefully curated celebration of everything that makes Eswatini’s creative and entrepreneurial community so special.

Foodies will be well served. Fusion Delights by Fadeela, Ninjani Bakery, A Bit of Butter, Little Bliss Bakery, and Trinkle Treats are among the names bringing flavour and warmth to the day. Queen Bee Eswatini and Rella Nuts & TastyBites add to a spread that is equal parts indulgent and inspired. For something to raise a glass to, Jackalberry Distillery, Cork N Co, and Bucha round out a drinks offering that caters to every taste.

Fashion lovers will find plenty to fall in love with, from the wearable artistry of Baobab Batik and Lulba Afrika to the contemporary flair of Khokho Collection, Juju Couture, and Dvumisa Creative. It is the kind of shopping experience that feels good, because every purchase puts money directly into the hands of a local maker.

The Lifestyle and Activities village adds even more reason to spend the full day on the grounds. Gone Rural is hosting a Mega Sale that alone is worth the drive to Malkerns, while Reader’s Café, Mongi Botanical, Paint ‘N’ Sip, and Little Orchid Dye-Signs offer experiences that are as enriching as they are enjoyable. Women Working Together brings a meaningful community dimension to the afternoon, reminding us that markets like this are about far more than shopping.

Easter may be over, but Malandela’s is making sure it goes out beautifully. This is the kind of Saturday that you will remember long after the holiday is over ,warm, unhurried, and full of the very best that Eswatini has to offer.

The Malandela’s Easter Market takes place tomorrow, Saturday 11th April 2026, from 10am to 4pm at Malandela’s Lifestyle Centre, Malkerns. Entry is open to the public. Vendors interested in future markets can reach out to [email protected].
