Pohela Baisakh 2026 Celebration

The community's biggest programme to date — a seven-hour Bangla New Year celebration built around the six seasons of Bangladesh, with 102 registered guests.

A full afternoon and evening at Livingston Lodge in Indian Hill, running from 4 PM until 11 PM, planned by a volunteer adhoc team drawn from across the community.

The cultural programme was structured differently that year: instead of a straight run of performances, it was organised around the six seasons of Bangladesh, with a separate group of participants preparing each season's segment. The evening opened with a chorus song rehearsed by members beforehand.

Registration closed at the end of March with 102 people registered, and 42 marked themselves as attending on Facebook out of 296 invited.
