Panorama India, with the support of the Consulate General of India, Toronto and its Sponsors and
Media Partners is all set to celebrate India’s 76th anniversary of Indian Independence Day on
August 20th, 2023 at Nathan Philip Square.
We would be gathering to celebrate the vibrant culture, art and heritage of India besides enjoying
the Grand Parade around the streets of the square. Nathan Phillips Square will once again be
transformed into a lively place as we immerse ourselves in the sites, sounds, and flavors of India.
We are delighted to hold this exciting festival to celebrate India Day in an accessible way while
following all city rules and regulations. The India Day event is free and will run from 12:00 Noon to
10:00 pm. This is a unique and historic event that will bring all the Indo-Canadian individuals &
organizations together to rejoice on a common platform.
Panorama India is a not-for-profit umbrella organization established in 1999, that bonds various
Indo-Canadian organizations & groups, to celebrate & depict unity in diversity with their rich
culture & heritage. Panorama India provides a platform for the Indian cultural diaspora in Toronto
to exhibit and showcase their arts and culture. The organization fosters a better understanding
between India and Canada and is proud to build bi-lateral relations with India and Canada through
culture.
We can only do this with the immense support of our sponsors, TD Canada, SBI Bank Canada,
Ontario, TransEmerge, Nanda Lawyers, Rajdhani, Maharaja Bhog, ICICI Bank Canada and Mennon
Law.
We organize these events for our communities, and our Media Partners help us to spread the word
and ensure that every Indian can soak in the patriotic energy. We would like to thank our 55 Media
partners who have helped us with this.
We have some amazing highlights: The Patriotic Segment where you can witness the patriotic
songs & performances. This time we will have 100+ children perform on stage together in this
segment. The Grand Parade sponsored by TD where one would see Floats showcasing the culture
& heritage of Indian States & many other Indo Canadian Organizations participating in the Saree
Dhoti Walk and be part of the Parade with their Banners & flags. A memorable Parade showcasing
Unity in Diversity & depicting an Inclusive environment on the common platform of Panorama
India. We would also have a Cultural segment with folk and classical performances from different
states of India.
In addition to that, we would have various booths featuring Indian food, Jewelry, clothing and
services which can be experienced by our audience.
In the evening the audience would enjoy performances by our headliner Band – Sargam. Towards
the end of the program one can enjoy and dance to the tunes of Neeraj Shridhar also known as
Bombay Vikings.
We would also want to appreciate the efforts that are put in by out volunteers who work tirelessly
to ensure that all the background tasks are done on point.
The Panorama India Board of Directors along with all the Indo-Canadian communities are working
tirelessly to make this Festival a grand success.
We would like to request each & every individual who would like to experience India in a nutshell, to
be there at Nathan Phillips Square on the 20th of August 2023. Let’s get together and make the
Indian Independence celebration a memorable one.
