Gudi Padwa 2026 in London - A Maharashtrian New Year Celebration with Jugalbandi

🌸 Gudi Padwa 2026 in London - A Maharashtrian New Year Celebration with Jugalbandi

London may be where we live, but festivals have a way of taking us back home. Gudi Padwa (Maharashtrian New Year) is one of those moments: a fresh start, new beginnings, and the simple joy of celebrating together.

If you’re a student, a working professional, new to the city, or living away from family, this evening is for you.

Jugalbandi is hosting a warm, community-led Gudi Padwa celebration in central London, so nobody has to feel alone or away from home during a festival that means so much.

You’ll walk in and instantly feel:“This feels like home.”
