Join us for the Lohri Mela 2024, a festival of harvest and culture, at the RBC Convention Centre in Winnipeg on Saturday, January 13, 2024.

Lohri is a popular winter folk festival celebrated primarily in Northern India, especially in the Punjab region. It marks the end of the cold season and the beginning of longer and warmer days. It is also a time to express gratitude to the farmers and the Sun God for the bountiful crops.

Lohri Mela is a vibrant fair held in conjunction with the Punjabi festival of Lohri, primarily in the North Indian states of Punjab, Haryana, and Himachal Pradesh. While Lohri itself falls on January 13th or 14th, depending on the year, Lohri Melas can be held around that time, either leading up to the festival or on the day itself.
