We're back at the Gentse Feesten!
On Saturday, July 26, 2025, we're bringing the magic of India back to Baudelopark with our annual Shoonya Indian Night – a vibrant evening of dance, music, and celebration.
16:00 - Bhangra Workshop: Dive into Bhangra, an energetic folk dance from Punjab, originally performed during harvest season. It's a joyful celebration characterized by powerful moves, jumps, and the exhilarating rhythm of the dhol (double-sided drum)!
19:00 - Kalbeliya Workshop: After the performances by ABC – a Bollywood Company and Shoonya Dance Centre, you can join a Kalbeliya (Rajasthani folk dance) workshop.
Tip: Wear a long skirt for an authentic experience (it's not required, but definitely fun!)
21:00 - Garba Workshop: Following another set of performances by ABC – a Bollywood Company and Shoonya Dance Centre, we'll move into a Garba workshop. Garba is a lively folk dance from Gujarat, India, traditionally performed in circles during the Navratri festival to honor the goddess Amba. Could it become a viral Garba dance moment? Who knows!
00:00 - 02:30 - Indian Dance Party with DJ Swapkebolly: End the night with a thrilling dance party! DJ @swapkebolly will deliver an unforgettable mix of Bollywood, Bhangra, Kollywood, and fusion hits in a colorful, high-energy atmosphere full of rhythm and joy.
Admission: Free!
