About this Event
Paranda party
Join us for a vibrant celebration of tradition, style, and creativity at our Paranda Party! This unique event brings people together to honor the cultural art of braiding parandas—beautiful, colorful hair adornments—into hair. The theme, "Dekh Magar Pyaar Se" (Look, but with love), emphasizes connection, self-expression, and positive energy.
Urdu for "Look, but with love," this theme invites us to view one another with respect, dignity, and affection, embracing the strength of our community. We uplift each other, sharing in the tradition of hair care and braiding as an expression of love and unity. With each braid, we embody the power and resilience of the divine feminine, recognizing that in our shared stories and experiences, we find both beauty and belonging.
Event Highlights:
- VIP Experience: VIP ticket holders receive a special jingling paranda to braid into their hair, adding an extra touch of sparkle and sound to the festivities.
- Swing that Paranda: Enjoy music, poetry, and belly dancing, and end the night with a lively dance party right in the heart of the Castro.
- Gifts for Attendees: All ticket holders will receive a custom zine and stickers to commemorate the event.
As we dance, share poetry, and celebrate, we weave together not just our hair, but also the strength, grace, and resilience that connect us as a community. Whether you're attending to braid, watch, or simply enjoy the atmosphere, this event promises a memorable experience filled with love, beauty, and cultural appreciation. Everyone is welcome!
