Rang Taali Garba 2025
2025-03-29 19:30 - 2025-03-30 01:00 UTC | Alperton Community School, Ealing Road, Wembley, HA0 4PW, United Kingdom
It’s time to get Garba ready – mark your calendars and get ready for an unforgettable experience! The Cultural Collective would once again like to warmly welcome you to our flagship event: Rang Taali Garba! We invite you to join us for Chaitra Navratri 2025 as we look to mark new beginnings with a journey back to our authentic roots by exploring the true essence behind Garba. Truly traditional music? Indian food with a twist? And one night to remember? Expect it all and more.
WHAT?
This year, our charity partner is Mind in Harrow, a subsidiary of Mind UK. Founded with a vision to empower individuals to take control of their mental health, Mind UK is a leading charity focused on mental well-being across England and Wales. They do this by providing confidential helplines, legal advice, and mental health information. They have also been working within the British-Indian community to break down cultural stigmas and promote open conversations about mental health, offering resources and assistance such as the Diya South Asian Group run by Mind in Harrow.

What’s more is that all our dandiyas will be decorated by some very special children in India working with the NGO Asha for Education, where all monies will go towards their education and wellbeing.

EXPERIENCE
If such great causes aren’t enough for you, then rest assured that you can expect homegrown talent from the UK Indian music scene, and that we hope to offer a range of stalls and vendors on the day. Prepare to be captivated by an immersive experience as we aim to transform this event into a magical atmosphere that resembles a ‘Sandhya Aarti’-like setting.
FOOD
Delicious Indian food – with a hint of East Africa, fresh juices and sweet treats will be available to purchase on the night!

The Cultural Collective team are eagerly waiting to welcome you all to an unforgettable evening filled with pulsating beats, mesmerising performances, and an atmosphere that will ignite the cultural flame within you.
