Home > News > Very Happy New Year 2019!  – Auspicious Times – Meet at Sunfest 2019

We hope you are counting down to the dawn of our own traditional New Year.  So are we at the Sinhalese Cultural Centre.

The Sinhalese New Year was,

  •     Proclaimed with the knowledge in the planetary systems,
  •     Protected for the value of the stimulation,
  •     Decorated with the vibe of the festivity,
  •     Nourished with the invaluable harmonious social fabric,

by our own ancestors, for over thousands of years that created arguably the centre-piece of our proud Sinhalese Culture.

Here we are, today, thousands of miles away from where the tradition began, still seeing the value and strength of our heritage, seeing the strength and value of something unique we own celebrate our own Sinhalese New Year in our own ways unique.

We wish you gain all the harmony you need, all the happiness you want, all the prosperity you value with the dawn of the Sinhalese New Year that falls on the 14 April 2019.
