the event promises plenty to look forward to
As Diwali approaches, the air comes alive with colour, music and celebration.
It is a time for families to gather, neighbours to exchange mithai and everyone to look hopefully towards the New Year.
The Festival of Lights is a time to embrace joy, goodness, and togetherness, values that Dishoom captures each year perfectly.
This November, the popular restaurant group will be bringing its most dazzling celebrations yet to Birmingham.
From feasting and music to mehndi and dancing, the Diwali party promises an unforgettable night inspired by the energy of Bombay.
Whether you’re celebrating Diwali for the first time or rekindling cherished traditions, Dishoom’s gatherings offer a warm, spirited way to mark the festival.
With mehndi, music, dancing and a generous feast all part of the experience, the event promises plenty to look forward to from the moment guests arrive.
On November 2, Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery will trade its usually quiet evening for music, colour and partying, with the celebrations running from 7 pm until 11:30 pm.
Hosted by Vallisa Chauhan, the evening will feature a glittering line-up curated by BBC Asian Network, bringing a vibrant soundtrack to the festivities.
Guests will also be treated to a belly-filling vegetarian or vegan feast, while complimentary chai will be available to enjoy.
Mehndi will also be offered for anyone wanting to add a traditional touch to their evening.
With the event being at Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery on Chamberlain Square, the party offers an opportunity to celebrate Diwali in a lively setting surrounded by food, music and plenty of festive spirit.
Tickets are currently available as First Dibs for £30, but this price is only available until Sunday, October 11. Tickets will then increase to £35.
