Join us for our Thingyan (Myanmar New Year) event, where we will adapt our celebration this year - in light of the devastating 7.7magnitude earthquake in Myanmar, on the 28th of March 2025.
Traditionally, the main feature of “Thingyan” is that we splash water on each other to wash away the sins of the past year and welcome the new year with a clean slate, symbolizing renewal and purification. This year, we’ll focus on saving water instead of splashing water and organising a fundraiser where attendees can donate to send fresh water and essential life support back to Myanmar.
Enjoy free food and demonstrations at the event as we come together to support our community and celebrate new, better beginnings.
"No Splash Thingyan! Conserve Water, Aid Myanmar Earthquake Relief."
