The evening started with a variety of snacks and welcome opportunities to socialize, as this was the first major event of the year. No Punjabi celebration is complete without Bhangra and Gidha – two popular forms of folk dances. The stage performances included Bhangra by three separate groups and Gidha performed by an award-winning local group. Last year, the Gidha group won second-prize in the international Gidha competition, held in Chicago. Other highlights of the evening included a fusion group dance, songs by local artists and live Dhol performance by Dholi Jarnail Singh from New York. Stage curtains were once again closed, as dinner buffet was opened. Lights were dimmed and within moments, the glimmering dance floor was full as the DJ unleashed a thread of Bhangra music.
