We are including Garba, Dhunuchi dance, and various other cultural programmes from across India. Our primary goal for this event is to showcase diverse cultures through the event. It promises to be the highlight of the year, uniting communities under one roof and fostering a sense of home, akin to the largest national festival of the year.”

This year, our theme is inspired by the phrase, ‘unity in diversity’ where we are dedicated to promoting Indian art, culture, and heritage on a grander scale. This event will highlight the uniqueness of India through exhibition stalls, food courts, and cultural programs. The celebration will be open to everyone who wishes to attend and enjoy with their loved ones.”
