SOLD OUT for the last 7 years…3,000 person attendance….the biggest teams from North America & Canada…advertising and airing on international television via TV ASIA….this is what you will get from the 8th annual Boston Bhangra Competition.  The past 7 competitions have all sold out, and were a phenomenal success!  It looks like Boston Bhangra has found a niche market where they have been able to get some of the best teams from North America, some great live performing artists and cheap tickets to keep this an event on the up and up.  This year should be no different.

The Boston Bhangra Competition, called BBC for short, will be hosted on November 12th, 2011 at the Orpheum Theatre.  They sold out the event last year at one of the most historical theatres in Boston, which is located at 1 Hamilton Place in Boston, MA.  The capacity is close to 3,000 people, and they hope to sell out for the 8th straight year.  

This year, the competition will have teams from all over the US and Canada.  They will have teams from locations as far west as California, and as close as Boston.  These teams have consistently done well in many competitions, and they will once again make it difficult on the judges.

To add even more excitement to the event, Boston Bhangra will have a special performance by Bhangra superstar Nirmal Sidhu!  This artist has made the hit songs: Sher Punjabi Putt, Bindhrakhia Boliyaan, Punjabi, Char Panj and many more!  You can hear some of these songs on the Boston Bhangra website.

Bollywood Grill will be the food vendor of choice as they will be serving snacks, dinner and drinks at the venue, so come hungry so that you can enjoy their fantastic food!

TV Asia will be the official television sponsor, helping to promote the competition internationally and will the entire competition at the end of November.  This is the only competition to have television advertising and airing throughout North America and Canada!  

Overall, this is a huge year for the Boston Bhangra Competition, as they are getting heavily involved with television, bringing great teams to a historic theatre, and serving great food! This is not a show that you want to miss!  The tickets will range in price from $20 for general admission through $40 for VIP.  There are even $100 VVIP tickets if you want to watch Bhangra in style! This is very cheap for a show of this caliber that will be highlighted with more than 3 hours of exciting bhangra from some of the best teams in North America!

“This is a show for the people.  We want everybody to come and enjoy Bhangra.  That is why we try to keep ticket prices as cheap as possible.  We don’t want people to get turned away, unless they wait too long to buy tickets” says Rohit.

TV Asia, Taj Hotels, Bollywood Grill, Ocean Spray, Boston University, and Herb Chambers are some of the bigger sponsors that have helped to make this show a reality.

We look forward to seeing you at the Orpheum Theatre on November 12th, 2011!  Buy your tickets early before they’re sold out!  For more information, visit www.bostonbhangra.com/bbc.   You can also e-mail: info@bostonbhangra.com, or call 617-448-2508 for more information.
