A Grand Family Gathering: UPAA-QLD & AIBN’s Diwali 2025 Celebrated with Heart and Tradition

The Uttar Pradesh Association of Australia (UPAA-QLD) and the AusIndia Business Network (AIBN) successfully hosted their much-anticipated Diwali Celebration 2025—an event that transcended a community function to feel like a cherished family gathering.
Held on Saturday, 11th October 2025, at the stunning Indian Brothers, Annerley, the sold-out night was a beautiful reflection of tradition, culture, and communal joy. The evening was woven with the deep, familial bonds of the Indian community, creating a warm, magical ambience.
The celebration was highlighted by a solemn and heartfelt Laxmi Pooja, followed by the central theme of the night: the traditional Tika Ceremony, where guests exchanged blessings, symbolizing the strengthening of family ties and the showering of good fortune upon one another.
