Bahrain Noor El Ain's Souk Explorer Challenge set to revitalise Manama's historical district

Manama, Monday, 2nd February, 2015:

The Manama Souk, one of Bahrain's oldest and most iconic districts, is set to undergo rediscovery for the modern age courtesy of the Bahrain Noor El Ain Festival.  The "Souk Explorer" takes place on the weekend of the 6th and 7th of February and is the first of its kind. Registered teams of three members each, will embark on a race on foot to explore the Manama Souk's winding streets and unique shopping atmosphere of the Manama Souk and complete a scavenger hunt challenge.  Each team's journey will be recorded by a Go Pro camera and uploaded to a giant screen at the start/finish line for visitors to see, as well as to social media channels.

The teams will have a map of the souk and will be required to purchase some easily-found items at the lowest price and in the shortest time possible out of a 45 minute allowance. Teams will have to race to complete the challenge using only the available clues and renowned souk bartering techniques.

Registration is now open for participants to sign up online by emailing info@bahrainnoorelain.com and registering their teams and then paying BD15 per team on site at the Manama souk to confirm their selected timeslot, which will be returned as their challenge spending money.
