The Back in Time – Retro Themed Market invites the community to rewind the clock and relive the charm of a bygone era through music, fashion, food and shared memories. Designed as a joyful celebration of nostalgia, the market blends vintage aesthetics with meaningful community engagement, creating a space where the past and present meet seamlessly.
Visitors are encouraged to step out in their finest retro avatars — from bell bottoms and polka dots to vintage sarees and old-school swagger — with a special Best Dressed Retro Look prize adding a playful edge to the experience. Music forms the heart of the evening, as sing-along sessions with Peter Savio and timeless retro hits transport audiences back to the golden age of melody and rhythm, inviting everyone to dance, hum along and relive cherished moments.
Beyond nostalgia, the market also champions conscious living through its preloved sale initiative built on the principles of Relove, Reduce and Reuse. By giving preloved items a new life, the event promotes sustainable shopping while reminding visitors that style and responsibility can go hand in hand.
Adding a deeply personal touch is the community wall, where attendees are invited to share what they miss most about the old days — sparking conversations, memories and connections across generations. Local Goan vendors complete the experience with authentic food, traditional snacks, handcrafted goods and unique finds, reinforcing the importance of supporting local talent and culture.
More than just a market, Back in Time is a celebration of memories, music and mindful choices — a space where families, friends and communities come together to honour the past while shaping a more connected and sustainable present.
