This year, the competition will have teams from all over the US and Canada.  They will have teams from locations as far west as Vancouver, Canada, 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 special performances by India-based Bhangra superstar Saini Surinder and UK based Gupsy Aujla!  They have created hits like: Bhangra, Mundra, Shaunk, Dupatta, Rangeeleh, Thor, Desi Peeni and many more!  You can hear some of these songs on the Boston Bhangra website.

Passage to India 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, WHDH and India New England will be the official media sponsors, helping to promote the competition nationally, and internationally.  

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 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.
