It’s 3:27pm and you are fading fast. Need a getaway to totally chill for 30?

Go!
Your mind rewinds to the magical facade by the entrance foyer. Beckoning you in, it’s an AGHA member only paradise.

Imagine!
Fast forward. You are already laying back and sinking into a spongy day lounge.

Sip!
A cool drink. Enjoy a tasty snack.

Look!
You nonchalantly leaf a designer mag, soaking it all in, as you luxuriate in this secluded sanctuary.

Wow!
You have visited somewhere else for a few, precious moments. A timeless land.

Arabian nights meets cafe society. You could only be in one place. Club Bazaar.

Located in the Dome Foyer every day of the fair.
