Description
Celebrate the arrival of spring with an evening filled with music, dance and traditional Persian food as we welcome the season of renewal together.
Nowruz is a time of rebirth, hope, and new beginnings – and we’re bringing that spirit to life with a festive gathering you won’t want to miss. Come connect with friends, enjoy rich cultural traditions and immerse yourself in the beauty of this centuries‑old celebration. Let’s honour the season, share in the joy, and step into spring with warmth and community.
