Welcome to Balkan Bazaar
September - October 2024

Happy early autumn from Suze and Richie, owners of Balkan Bazaar. This photo is from our pop-up shop at Texas Camp 2019 -- we were tired but happy.  We also enjoyed Texas Camp 2023 over Thanksgiving weekend!  It was wonderful to be together with many of you there.  We thrive on seeing so many friends, good dancing, conversations, and food.  We'll be back at Texas Camp in 2024 -- hope to see you there!

Kolo Festival folks -- we'll be with you in spirit while we're at Texas Camp. Of course, you may shop here!

We danced, sang, and played music with many of you at the recent EEFC Balkan Music & Dance Workshop  Aug 10-17, 2024 at Camp Iroquois Springs, NY.   

October 2024 - For quick shopping, here are our 3 Balkan Bazaar "Tiny Tables" (Google Slides) of selected goodies. Items are added frequently.

Contact us if you don't see Balkan things you're looking for. Folk music CDs are popular as gifts, easy to wrap and mail . Most of our titles are on sale at the reduced price of $10!! Too many titles to list them all. Ask us for your favorite Bulgarian CDs, or we can suggest some titles.  If you're near us in North Carolina, or driving through, call for a shopping appointment.

Where’s our shop? We're in the US, but don't have a brick and mortar store in a building. Before the pandemic we traveled to folk dance camps and events to build our pop-up shop with both contemporary and vintage Balkan folk wares. Some events have resumed so we're back on the road. It's easier for us to set up a real shop than to manipulate this website, so you'll experience lots more Balkan Bazaar at an actual event.  We offer you a treasure trove of folksy things - there's lots to look through, much more than the samples we have here on our website. 

Many items are one of a kind, like a vintage Bulgarian hand-woven beaded belt or an out of print ethnic costume book. When that unique piece is gone, it's gone. Luckily, we're always collecting more. Some items are available in various styles and sizes, such as Bulgarian T-shirts, Bulgarian socks, table linens, and postcards. 

Please contact us if you don't see what you want, or if you have a question about a listed item. We'll tell you if we still have the item, if we can get another one, or if we can suggest something similar.
