Harrow 1Eid Festival to celebrate Eid ul Adha

The 1Eid Festival, a celebration of Eid ul Adha, set to take place on either the 28th or 29th of June.

The official announcement regarding the exact date will be made on the festival’s website and social media pages, so make sure to stay tuned for updates.

This year’s 1Eid Festival promises to be a memorable event for all attendees, with a range of special attractions to enjoy.

The day will kick off with a joyful Eid prayer at 10:00am, bringing the community together in Kenton Recreation Ground in Harrow.

Following the prayers, visitors can look forward to an array of activities and entertainment.

As the sun sets, the festival will light up the night sky with a dazzling fireworks display scheduled for 9:30pm. Families can also enjoy a variety of funfair rides and inflatables. Engaging competitions with exciting prizes will add an extra layer of excitement to the festivities, making it a day to remember.

For those seeking a unique experience, donkey rides will be available, offering a delightful adventure for children. And of course, no celebration is complete without delicious food.

The festival will feature a wide range of Eid delicacies, desserts, ice cream, slush, and more, ensuring that everyone can indulge in the delights of the occasion.

It is important to note that while the event is organised by dedicated volunteers for the community, there is a nominal charge for attending the festival.

This charge is necessary to cover the costs associated with renting the grounds, which requires several days for setup and breakdown.

The funds collected through these donations help ensure that 1Eid can continue to provide this joyous celebration of Eid every year, without incurring debt.

1Eid Festival is a community-driven initiative, and the organisers are immensely grateful for the ongoing support of the Muslim community, which has sustained the revival of the Sunnah of Eid for over 17 years.

Mark your calendars for this grand celebration of Eid ul Adha, which will be held at the Kenton Recreation Ground, located at 73 Alicia Avenue in Harrow (HA3 8J).
