Las Vegas Indian Food and Cultural Festival
The Las Vegas Indian Food Festival makes its grand return to the Clark County Amphitheater on April 12, 2025! 🎉 Don't miss this incredible opportunity to showcase your business or organization at one of the most anticipated cultural events of the year.
Join the diverse Las Vegas community to celebrate the long awaited annual Indian Food and Cultural Festival/Vaisakhi-2025 on Saturday, April 12th 2025 at the fabulous Las Vegas downtown Clark County Amphitheater.
After a long COVID-era hiatus, Baba Gurudwara Deep Singh is pleased to announce the celebration of Vaisakhi, aka Indian Food Festival aka Las Vegas Mela, on Saturday, April 12th, 2025, at the expansive Clark County Government Center grounds in downtown Las Vegas.
What began in 2004 as a small indoor gathering at the Masonic Lodge has since grown into one of the most anticipated cultural events in the city, attracting thousands of attendees from all walks of life. Over the years, the Mela has undergone several transformations, evolving alongside the city’s vibrant, growing Indian population.
With a growing, diverse Indian community, the Mela moved on to the Cashman Center for the next few years. In the wake of the Cashman Center’s closure and with increasing participation each year, organizers decided to move the event to a larger downtown county facility. Moving to a downtown county facility and renaming it the Indian Food Festival was a natural progression, especially with all the cultural performances, food, and community involvement. The last festivities in 2019, which brought in over 6,000 attendees, showcased the rich diversity of India with a host of cultural performances from the local Indian community groups, multi-cuisine booths serving savory delights from the Indian sub-continent, Indian clothing & jewelry, Henna artists and children activities throughout the day.
The evening always concluded with a live performance by a professional high-octane DJ who moved the community to Punjabi, Hindi, and American music grooves. Its quite an incredible journey, evolving from a small indoor event to a massive, vibrant celebration with thousands of attendees. While the event has undergone many changes over the years, one thing remains constant: the festival’s commitment to celebrating and sharing the cultural richness of India with all.
