Vaisakhi: Khalsa Sajna Divas

Celebrate the vibrant spirit of Vaisakhi as Federation Square transforms into a sea of color and culture. Marking the birth of the Khalsa and the Punjabi harvest festival, this free community event invites all Melburnians to experience the richness of Sikh heritage.

Witness the breathtaking Gatka (Sikh martial arts) demonstrations, enjoy rhythmic folk music and dance performances, and participate in the world-famous tradition of Langar – where free vegetarian food is served to all as a symbol of equality and service. Whether you’re coming for the food, the music, or the Turban-tying stall, it’s a day of unity not to be missed.

Bring your friends and family to the city’s iconic meeting place for a day of peace, community and spectacular culture.
