Celebrating South Asian Heritage Month with a little piece of India in the heart of Cambridge: a free, two-day celebration of culture, colour, food and community. Everyone welcome.
Sat 4 July · 11am–5pm
Sun 5 July · 12pm–5pm
Cambridge India Day brings India's rich heritage to Jesus Green through exhibitions, dance, music, regional cuisine, arts, crafts and folk culture. It is an open, welcoming event where people of every background come together.
Our vision is to help younger generations of the Indian diaspora stay connected to their roots, while sharing the beauty, diversity and values of India with the wider British, international and global communities that call Cambridge home.
After two successful pilot years at Christ's Pieces, which drew huge crowds even through heavy rain, the festival now moves to the larger setting of Jesus Green. This belongs to all of us.
We welcome you not only as visitors, but as the people who shape the day. Bring your skills, your energy and your culture.

Cambridge is a global hub of talent, research and enterprise, and home to a vibrant, deeply connected Indian community.
Professionals, researchers, students, families, entrepreneurs and technology leaders, connected with world-renowned hospitals, the University of Cambridge, science parks and global companies.
Cambridge India Day is more than a festival — it is a cultural bridge between communities. Through food, music, dance, art and regional traditions, it offers an authentic glimpse of one of the world's oldest and most diverse civilisations, while connecting younger British-Indian generations to their roots and helping Cambridge celebrate what makes each of us unique.

Visual observation is a powerful way to convey a message — so we create it for people to see, experience and learn.
Travel is the best education, but not everyone is lucky enough to travel abroad. Books and the internet hold a wealth of information — but who has the time?
So we create an ambience where visitors can travel to India simply by stepping into the pavilions, and experience the extraordinary diversity of India first-hand.
