Kairouan Hosts Traditional Crafts Fair
The city of Kairouan hosts a national fair for traditional crafts from August 21 to 26, 2026, at the Asad bin Al-Furat Cultural Complex, as part of the celebrations of the Prophet Muhammad's (PBUH) birthday. The exhibition features the participation of 98 artisans from 21 Tunisian provinces, showcasing a diverse array of traditional products that reflect the richness of Tunisian craftsmanship heritage, including rugs, handcrafted textiles, hammered copper, and embroidery. The goal of the fair is to support the marketing of traditional products, introduce visitors to the unique qualities of Tunisian crafts, stimulate commercial activity through digital marketing tools, and highlight the skills and diverse techniques of the artisans. This initiative aims to strengthen the presence of the craft heritage in the region and make it more accessible to both local and international audiences. Organizing this event in conjunction with the Prophet’s birthday celebrations offers an opportunity to promote the cultural and heritage context of Kairouan and to support traditional industries as an integral part of the cultural identity.
