A record crowd of 83,000 turned out for the London Mela on the 16th August 2009- one of the largest Asian festivals in Europe.
An estimated 40 per cent of those attending were from non-Asian backgrounds as revellers from across the capital soaked up the atmosphere. Mela artistic director Ajay Chhabra said he was "delighted" with the turnout and added:” this year we had a bit of the great British summer we've all been waiting for, which brings out the feelgood factor.”
Performances were split across several zones: urban, classical and experimental music, DJs, circus, dance, visual arts, archive film, comedy and a children's play area.
