What is a Vaisakhi?

Vaisakhi marks the Punjabi harvest and, for Sikhs, the founding of the Khalsa in 1699. In the UK it is celebrated with nagar kirtans, melas, community events and parties.

For melas, community stages and company celebrations we supply dhol players, bhangra and giddha dancers, Punjabi singers, DJs, staging and turban tying stalls. Religious processions follow the gurdwara's own arrangements.

    Dhol players to open the event

  • Step 2

    A bhangra and giddha performance

  • Step 3

  • Step 4

Tips from our team

  1. 1

    Make it hands-on

    Turban tying and a quick bhangra lesson give guests something to take part in, not just watch.

  2. 2

    Plan for outdoors

    Spring weather is unpredictable. Agree a covered area for performers and sound.

  3. 3

    Book early for April weekends

    Dhol and bhangra teams are in demand around Vaisakhi.

Frequently asked questions

Do venues around Stornoway have sound limits for dhol or music?

Many hotels and country houses set a sound limit or an end time, and some ask for unplugged dhol indoors. Tell us your venue when you enquire and we will check its rules before we confirm anything.

Which postcodes around Stornoway do you cover?

All of HS1 and HS2, including Na h-Eileanan an Iar, Sanndabhaig, Bac and Liurbost, plus the rest of North Scotland and nearby Tarbert, An t-Ob, Gairloch and Poolewe.

When is Vaisakhi?

Vaisakhi falls on 13 or 14 April, and UK events often run on the weekends around it.

Can you run a turban tying stall?

Yes. Turban tying is popular at Vaisakhi events and gives guests a hands-on part of the celebration.

Still have questions?
