We were delighted to Sponsor in two vibrant Sri Lankan New Year celebrations across the United Kingdom this year.
- The Sinhala and Tamil New Year Festival organised by Redbridge Buddhist Cultural Centre, held on 25 April 2026 at Woodbridge High School
- Midlands Surya Mangalya, organised by Jethavana Buddhist Vihara Trust, held on 2 May 2026 at Pallet-Track Bescot Stadium
These vibrant celebrations brought communities together through traditional Avurudu games, cultural performances, family activities, and musical entertainment, reflecting the rich heritage and traditions of Sri Lanka.
It was truly inspiring to witness the spirit of Avurudu celebrated with such warmth, unity and pride across the United Kingdom, highlighting the strong cultural connections within the Sri Lankan community.
As the Gateway to Sri Lanka, Bank of Ceylon UK Ltd remains committed to supporting the Sri Lankan community across the UK by strengthening cultural ties, promoting community engagement and fostering togetherness.
