This year, our cultural programme brings together the many colours of Bengali expression —
the invocation of the Mother, the humour of everyday life, the strength and voice of women,
stories that celebrate our differences, the energy of a new generation, timeless music,
and a heartfelt tribute to the icons who shaped our cultural memory. Across five festive days,
R.I.S.E. invites the community to experience culture not simply as a performance, but as a
shared celebration of heritage, creativity, identity and togetherness.

Our Cultural Theme — From tradition to contemporary expression, this year’s
programme celebrates the voices, stories, music, theatre and people that make Bengali culture
living, evolving and deeply connected. Every performance is a different shade of the same
spirit — bringing generations together through art, memory, laughter and celebration.
