Another event that was incomparable was the 'Mela'. Traditionally everyone likes fairs. Bangshal Mela has been named as 'Eid Anand  Mela'.

It is usually crowded with vehicles and people. The road is empty as people leave the village. Due to the epidemic, children could not have such entertainment. So we organize the fair to give happiness to the people of Dhaka.

We want this fair to happen every year and our children can enjoy the entertainment twice as much. According to them, Bangshal has organized the best Eid celebration not only in Old Dhaka but also in the entire Dhaka city. On behalf of the people of Bangshal, we express our sincere thanks to all those who are behind these arrangements. Anand Mela is going on for 5 days from Eid day to Saturday at Nayabazar, French Road, Banshal, Old Dhaka. Thousands of people including locals are enjoying this joyous fair every day.
