About Awaaz Festival

Join us for our first Awaaz Festival, our vibrant new South Asian festival celebrating the rich traditions, stories, and creativity of South Asian culture. The programme features an exciting line-up of workshops, events, performances, and community-led showcases. Get moving with high-energy Bollywood and Bhangra dance sessions or explore the flavours of South Asian with cookery demonstrations, where you’ll learn to make traditional breads like paratha and naan - with tastings, of course!

Try your hand at saree draping and delve into storytelling and drama workshops. Be inspired by our interactive fabric art activity, where your own colourful square will become part of a large community wall hanging.


Don’t miss the cultural fashion show, highlighting South Asian traditional attire and the stories behind them, curated by our community connectors. The programme ends with a community showcase of performances in the auditorium.

Come and experience the energy, stories, and spirit of South Asian arts in action!

This event is FREE, booking is required.
