Hear what people have to say…

  • What a super fantastic day - everyone had the best time! The acts we saw (the Japanese drumming, DJ, Morris dancing, Tai Chi class and Bollywood) all made a powerful impression. Also, the health stalls provided their own benefit. Many thanks for putting this all together for us - dearly hoping it'll be back again next year and we can get behind it even more!

  • New List ItemWe always knew it would be a great event with phenomenal multicultural performances from across the city’s diverse communities, but the reaction from the audience, the spontaneous dancing, the whole party atmosphere for the entire day I think blew all our minds!! Really hope it was the first of many such events! 😊🙏
