It’s January, which means it’s time for the annual evening of fun, frolic, and shopping at the sprawling Exhibition Grounds. The All India Industrial Exhibition, known locally as Numaish, has returned, and Hyderabadis have begun to flock to explore the annual extravaganza.
The exhibition ground becomes truly vibrant and lively with shopkeepers calling out customers, public announcements, delectable food, joy rides, and songs played continuously.
This year, Numaish has around 2,300 stalls with traders from all over the country displaying their products. Everything from clothing to handicrafts to electronics to dry fruits and perfumes is on display.
For some, it’s just a place to shop and socialise, while for others, it’s all about precious memories and nostalgia. Prakash, a regular at the event, has found a memory o Numaish, saying, “In 1998, I came to the exhibition for the first time with my family and bought many interesting things here.”

Visitors can catch the aroma of their favourite foods – kebabs, fast foods, and chats – wafting through the air as they stroll along. Aside from the spicy food, there are kiosks selling cotton candy, ice cream, and popcorn to keep the kids entertained.
“Every year, I come here to have my favoruite dish – haleem, and I visit multiple times to enjoy it,” said a government employee P Santosh.
Aside from Badam Ki Jali, Agra Petha, and Vijaya Dairy’s flavoured milk, large-size Mirchi Bajjis are always popular here.
Many of the visitors can be seen screaming and yelling with joy in the playing arena while riding crazy joy rides, including visitors’ favourite giant wheel and cup saucer rides.
Must-try at Numaish:
- Relish hot Mirchi bajjis
- Baked and tender Badam Ki Jali
- Irresistible soft and chewy sweet – Agra Petha
- A ride on giant wheel
- Toy train ride
