Mid-April

Bengali Nababarsha

Poila Boishakh is when we begin the Bengali year together — new clothes, sweets, Rabindra sangeet and a long, unhurried lunch shared with the whole community.

What the day looks like

• Prabhat pheri style opening with songs of the season
• Traditional Bengali lunch served to all members
• Cultural programme by children and adults
• Adda that comfortably outlasts the programme

Taking part

Anyone who wants to sing, recite or perform is welcome — tell us a little ahead so we can fit you into the programme.
