This Saturday, June 14, the TEP Louis Braille (12th arrondissement) is transformed into a veritable window on India thanks to the festival organized by the Bolly Deewani association. Dance shows, initiations, concerts, a market and Indian cuisine await you for this 9th edition.

Plunge into the heart of India at a festival initiated by the Bolly Deewani association, at the TEP Louis Braille, in the 12th arrondissement. Established in Paris over 15 years ago, this association promotes Indian culture through dance and bodily expression. This Saturday, June 14, 2025, from 12.30 pm to 6 pm, you'll be able to attend Indian dance performances and take advantage of the opportunity to learn, but that's not all! For this 9th edition, there's also a concert, an Indian market and a delicatessen where you can sample the country's finest dishes!

It's an opportunity to immerse yourself in Indian culture, for a moment of sharing and dancing, through food, dance and music. It's a chance to get away from it all and discover a part of this culture through Bollywood dance choreography, as well as traditional dances such as Kuthu, a dance from southern India, or Bhangra, a festive dance from Punjab (northern India).

Initiations allow you to learn a few basic steps, while the "market" section features stalls selling traditional Indian clothing and jewelry, creations by artists and craftsmen, a wellness area and Indian culinary specialties to be enjoyed on the spot at this free festival.
