Welcome to Belfast Mela

CELEBRATING HUGE MELA 2011 SUCCESS 

Another year over and another massive success! A huge thanks to all our staff, volunteers, artists and crew who made the 2011 Mela the biggest and best to date. A whopping 20,000 people graced Botanic Gardens to enjoy a feast of cultural music, dance, food and crafts from around the world. 

As we shut the doors on this year's event, the date has been set for next year - 26th August 2012, with a more ambitious programme that ever. We look forward to seeing you there!
