Some of our previous London Event

Our Best Holi ever in London! We loved dancing with colours, authentic Indian food and the very friendly environment. A big round of applause for Geeta!!

Great atmosphere, great food, lovely music. Amazing to see the whole community, Indian and Non-Indian join in the celebrations. Wished it lasted longer. Well done Magic of India team.

This was an amazing event!!! Fun for all the family, super friendly and a great way for Indians and non-Indians to celebrate together! A highlight of our cultural calendar. Also really loved the location beautiful outdoor. 

It was my first ever Holi and I couldn't ask for a better experience. After visiting India , the event really made me feel a true Indian vibe. Great energy, everyone was so friendly and welcoming, the performances were outstanding, and so was the food. 

Magic of India Festival

Was fabulous! Can't get a better experience of Indian festivals outside of India. There were colours, music, dhol, food and non-stop fun. My 4 year old looks forward to it every year now!  

So much fun for adults and kids of all ages. the performances were very good and the music was fun. Food was delicious and the place amongst the cherry blossom trees was beautiful. One of my best days so far. Can't wait for next year!
