ISW Garba Nights 2025!

What an incredible couple of nights! 

On September 19 and 20 2025, the India Society of Worcester hosted back-to-back Garba and Dandiya celebrations, and the energy was off the charts.

Tickets disappeared a full week before the event, and it showed—both nights were buzzing from the first beat to the last spin.
Families, first-timers, long-time dancers, and a big Gen Z crew all jumped in. It was amazing to see every generation sharing the same rhythm and keeping the circle going late into the night.
Our venue at St George Cathedral came alive with music, lights, and the mouth-watering aroma of food from Chaitrali’s Kitchen and Mirchi Nation. From savory snacks to sweet treats of yummy desi flavored ice-cream from Tickett Ice-cream, this year we also had yummy Paan so nobody went home hungry.
Local vendors added to the fun with colorful stalls and unique finds be it jewelry from Arush collection and Mayin arts, clothing from Dream collection, Diwali decor from IRK collection and Festive collections, Art pieces from Meena arts & crafts, Fancy nails from V&P press on nails, Semper Laser hair removal.
And to keep the nights tempo going we had our super cool DJ’s!
A huge shout-out to DJ Raunak for making Friday night so special and super cool DJ Yogi on Saturday had the GenZ go crazy with his wonderful beats and singing! Yogi has been a long time ISW supporter, we wish his company Mint to Be Events super success in organizing group travel & wedding plannings.
Mesmerizing Mataji aarti was performed by more than 400 plus people each night, teaching the value of good over evil. Everyone got Mataji’s blessings in the form of yummy prasad prepared by enthusiastic volunteers.
Our dedicated volunteers from the Cultural committee, EB, Friends of EB. Your energy, planning, and teamwork made everything run so smoothly. We cannot Thank you enough. Such events are only run by teamwork which we can say proudly shows in every ISW event.

Thanks to everyone who came out, danced, and made these Garba Nights unforgettable. We’re already counting down to next year with a bigger and better event—see you on the dance floor again soon!
