Thank you for your patronage and being part of the Punjab Pavilion. With your visit our Pavilion will be a great success. Year 2013 is the third year of Punjab Pavilion. Punjabi music and the Punjabi folk dance “Bhangra” is well known in the world. Every Bollywood movie, for example, is now incorporating Bhangra songs, and Punjabi singers are becoming world famous because of the uniqueness of dholbeat. However, Punjab is not only about music and dance, but exhibits a richness of culture and heritage from its Maharajas to modernism, arts to medicine and agriculture to multinational corporations.

There is a lot of passion and enthusiasm in the community this year regarding the Punjab pavilion. With the support of our sponsors Panjab Foundation of Manitoba has been able to present the Punjab Pavilion at Folklorama again this year.

We would like to thank our Pavilion Coordinator, accompanied by the commitment and dedication of volunteers and performers that have helped us put together, what we believe will be a thoroughly entertaining show with excellent cuisine available, cultural displays and vendor stalls for purchase of clothing and fashion accessories.

The Foundation Board of Directors have and are working with commitment and dedication to achieve success of the Punjab Pavilion, We thank them all for their enthusiasm, unparalleled dedication and support as well as their valuable time.

It is hoped that Punjab Pavilion, website and souvenir magazine will serve two major goals. It will showcase vibrancy of the Punjabi community as well as provide an overview about modern Punjab, its people, culture, and contributions that Punjabi society has made to Winnipeg, Manitoba and to Canada.

Finally, we recognize our success is not possible without you –thank you for your visit and hope we meet and exceed your expectations.
