Celebrate Bathukamma & Dasara in Berlin: Festivals Full of Color and Tradition

Even thousands of kilometers from home, the vibrant spirit of Bathukamma and Dasara comes alive in Berlin! These festivals are a beautiful way for the Indian community—and friends of Indian culture—to celebrate tradition, devotion, and togetherness.

🌸 Bathukamma – The Festival of Flowers

Bathukamma is a unique festival from Telangana, where women arrange stacked flower arrangements and sing folk songs to celebrate nature and life. In Berlin, the festival brings together families and friends to:

• Create colorful Bathukammas
• Enjoy traditional folk songs and dances
• Share festive sweets and prasadam

We are delighted to have sponsored the Bathukamma and Dasara celebrations at the Ganesha Hindu Temple on 21.09.2025 by providing groceries, supporting the community, and helping make the events memorable.

🏹 Dasara – The Victory of Good Over Evil

Dasara, also known as Vijayadashami, celebrates the triumph of goddess Durga over Mahishasura. In Berlin, the Indian diaspora organizes events that include:

• Cultural performances like dance and music
• Community prayers and gatherings
• Authentic Indian festive foods

Dasara is a perfect moment to embrace Indian traditions, connect with the community, and enjoy a joyful celebration.
