About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour

Join us on August 15th as we celebrate India's Independence Day right here in the UK. We'll together raise the Indian flag and sing to the tunes of the national anthem, followed by a chance to meet and mingle with fellow Indian expats from around the city over free refreshments, chai, and some light snacks.

These moments make us miss our home country even more, thus it will be a great opportunity for Indians living abroad to come together in the spirit of unity and community. People of all backgrounds are welcome at this free event to honour India's history and independence as well as the strong bond between India and the UK. Don't miss out on connecting with the Indian diaspora this Independence Day!

A popular song that captures beautifully the sentiment behind hosting this event with much joy & pride. Welcome one, welcome all to this celebration of freedom & unity.

ऐ वतन वतन मेरे आबाद रहे तू, मैं जहाँ रहूँ जहां में याद रहे तू - पहुँचूँ मैं जहाँ भी मेरी बुनियाद रहे तू, ऐ वतन मेरे वतन | MEANING Oh my country, may you be prosperous & happy. No matter where I am in this world, I always remember you . No matter what heights I attain, you still are my foundation.

वंदे मातरम् | MEANING I salute to you mother

Organized by

Welcome to Namaste Village, where our commitment goes beyond serving delicious Indian cuisine — we are dedicated event organizers, weaving the cultural narratives of India through joyous celebrations. As a family-run restaurant, we take pride in offering a holistic Indian experience that extends far beyond the boundaries of our kitchen.

While our food is a delightful journey through the flavors of the country, you'll find that our events are an immersive exploration of its rich cultural tapestry. By curating celebrations, we become storytellers, sharing the traditions, values, and philosophy that define India, including the profound concept of Vasudev Kutumbkam — the belief that the world is one big family.

As event organizers, we see ourselves as ambassadors of Indian culture and hospitality, extending our reach beyond the restaurant walls. Our events are not mere gatherings; they are platforms where we showcase the grandeur of India — its warmth, diversity, and inclusiveness. Every celebration becomes a canvas on which we paint the story of our nation, creating an immersive experience for all who join us.
