IRCC Diwali

This is our flagship event held in celebration of the Indian Festival of Lights called Diwali. It is our organization’s mission to spread awareness about Indian culture in our diverse local community. We provide an opportunity to children and adults to showcase their talent and knowledge of Indian culture on the stage. Over 1000 children and adults perform on stage in various segments of the cultural program including high school and college level fusion and folk dance competitions. We always have several local dignitaries from nearby cities and counties joining us and experiencing the event, often with their own families. Visitors get to enjoy cultural displays from all parts of India with music and dance performances in different categories such as Bhangra, Raas/ Garba/ Folk and Bollywood/ Fusion. In the last five years, this event has proved to be a major attraction in Broward County with over 60 vendor booths and thousands of attendees each year!

In addition to the extravagant cultural entertainment program and competitions, numerous vendors display and sell food, clothes, jewelry and accessories, and services. Food vendors offer a variety of Indian and non-Indian delicacies.
