The Only Bollywood Garba in Durham Region

What started in 2018 as a unique idea — fusing the vibrant energy of Bollywood music with the beloved tradition of Garba — has grown into Durham Region's most anticipated Navratri celebration. Hosted by Luminous Events at Pickering High School in Ajax, Bollywood Garba has become a sold-out annual tradition that brings hundreds of families, youth, and community members together every year.

Decked in traditional chaniya cholis and kurtas, guests dance to a seamless mix of classic Bollywood hits and festive Garba beats, creating a night of pure joy, colour, and community spirit.
