It was a fun filled event with day long celebration of Indian culture, cuisines, dances and much more. However it did not seem to be a packed event. Booth owners complained about the turn out.

Celebrations started at ten in the morning and expected to continue all day. A special parade, flag hosting, patriotic songs and other cultural activities were the highlights.
