Be part of the largest Indian Festival in the region
Hosted and organized by the ICA, the India Festival is by far the largest and the most loved Indian festival in this part of the world. Celebrated in honor of the Independence Day of India, it brings people together from near and far especially, from India, to be part of the festivities and drench themselves in the feelings of patriotism even when they are away from their mother land.

If you love dance, music, acting or any other dance form for that matter, you are welcomed to be part of the India Festival.
