On Saturday 31st August, a procession from Wanstead Flats to the Temple via Green Street is planned to be vibrant, colourful and very entertaining with live music including Dhol players and folk dancers. The event has been organised by young volunteers. The week’s celebration will be vibrant and colourful, with live music, dramas and folk dancing.
The initial date for the celebrations had been planned for 2012, however since Newham was hosting the Olympics, the restrictions it caused meant the Temple were unable to carry out the celebrations. The voluntary organisation were devastated, but are further invigorated to deliver an enjoyable and memorable event, urging the local community to take part and support this tremendous event of a life time.
