Diwali Celebration with Non-Stop Bhangra

Family Friendly Diwali Celebration
with Non-Stop Bhangra

Voted “Best Dance Party” in the SF Bay Area, Non Stop Bhangra is a unique experience that celebrates the beautiful and vibrant spirit of bhangra, a traditional Punjabi, Indian folk music and dance. A multicultural collective of dancers, DJs, drummers, and guest musicians, Non Stop Bhangra provides a platform for people of all ages and backgrounds to come together and dance in a positive environment. Imagine a scene from a Bollywood movie smack in the middle of a dance party – swirling colors, rhythm of pounding feet, bouncing shoulders, endless smiles, relentless energy & brilliant beats – that’s Non Stop Bhangra. 

Diwali, the festival of lights, is one of the most widely celebrated Indian holidays around the globe. At the Rhythmix Diwali Celebration, attendees will go on a spirited journey with the Non Stop Bhangra Collective sharing high-energy dance performances, live drumming, pre-show dance lessons, henna artists, Indian food and more. All ages are welcome to experience the colors, sounds, rhythms, and flavors of India on the open dance floor of the beautifully renovated Rhythmix theater.

Optional Dress Theme
A common tradition on Diwali is to wear something bright, new and colorful. All dancers are invited to support the vibe by dressing up in Indian style attire to celebrate this lively holiday. In addition to celebrating Diwali with the illumination of lights, it is also a time to reflect and celebrate good fortune and relationships of the passing year while spreading positive energy for the coming year. 

Doors open at 6:00pm with food and activities for kids.
