Nepali Mela in Calgary

With a slogan of “Our Culture, Our Identity and Our Pride: Let’s Embrace together”, NCSC, in partnership with Nepalese organizations in Calgary and in collaboration with other ethnic communities, is hosting one day Nepali Mela and Cultural Showcasing (NMCS) event at Prairie Wind Parks in West Winds Drive on 22 July 2023 from 9 AM to 6 PM. First in its kind in the history of Calgary, the key goal of the event is to showcase Nepali culture, arts and crafts, cuisine, and talents to a wider public in Calgary and the area. The event helps increase visibility of Nepalese in Calgary and demonstrates their caliber and volunteerism whenever required. On the top of this, the event provides an opportunity for local entrepreneurs to promote their products, offer their services and advertise their businesses to wider audience outside of Nepali diaspora. We are also taking a lead to foster multiculturalism by inviting other ethnic communities in Calgary to showcase their culture and heritage and help foster intergenerational and intercultural learning. We have a hope that there will be at least 5,000 people attending the Mela. We are also hoping to get Nepalese audience and performers from outside of Calgary to observe and enjoy our event.
