  Eid Al Adhar Eid at Night  

Eid definitely gets more exciting in the evenings. Young people are allowed out and excitingly that gives a rare chance for genders to mix. The fun park - a pleasure-less place on the edge of the town-centre offers space and stalls where you can sit on ubiquitous plastic garden chairs and sip soft drinks.

Eid fair
Eid fair
At one end three "big" wheels attract the crowds as youngsters queue and shriek. Some even show off their daring (or is it foolishness) by getting out mid-flight and dangling from the descending carriage until it reaches the ground. At the other end is a merry-go-round of flying-chairs; more lights, colours and shrieks of excitement. But, you'd have to be viewing it all from a distance to believe you were really missing something.
