Event Details
Luton Mela 2017

The history of Mela is a long and colourful one. Originating from South Asia, the word Mela traditionally comes from the Sanskrit To Meet. Mela's were an opportunity for families and communities to come together to celebrate religious, cultural or artistic events.

A Mela meaning festival beautifully describes an exciting summer outdoor event with an emphasis on cultural and artistic programme. They feature a mix of music, food, and information as well as all the fun of the fair. Mela's are an excellent opportunity for the whole community to come together and celebrate irrespective of ethnic background. They provide a crucial link with the community and offer organization a valuable opportunity to target a captive audience.

The first Luton mela took place in August 2000 and has developed into one of the most significant and well attended south Asian cultural events in the eastern region.

As well as exceptional entertainment (with both local, international and national artists), a showcase for the diverse communities of the town. The event also features a popular variety marquee. A children's zone with fun activities, art, crafts, a variety of stalls and a vast array of food all of which has attracted 22,000 attendees in previous years.

The Luton Mela is organised by a group of local volunteers whose aim is to bring harmony within the community through arts.
