NAGAR KIRTAN VAISAKHI MELA | SIKH COMMUNITY EVENT IN CALGARY | CANADA | 150,00+ PEOPLE

Tens of thousands gathered in northeast Calgary on Saturday for the 24th Nagar Kirtan to celebrate Vaisakhi, a Sikh faith celebration.
Some estimates had the number near 150,000 people from all over the Calgary region and across Alberta colourfully lining the parade route in Falconridge and Castleridge and in Prairie Winds Park.
According to the World Sikh Organization, Vaisakhi (which is traditionally celebrated in mid-April), marks the founding of the Khalsa, and has often been a harvest festival. The Nagar Kirtan parades are led by the five beloved, or the first five Sikh to become members of the Khalsa. In behind them is typically a float with the Sikh scripture, Sri Guru Granth Sahib.
