SOORYA FESTIVAL 2025

Trust us, this year’s event on June 28th, 2025, at the Staten Island Museum is going to be even better than the years before! We're kicking things off earlier this year to bring you a bigger, bolder, and more spectacular festival than ever before. 🎉✨

Expect incredible performances, vibrant culture, delicious food, and an energy like no other as we celebrate the start of summer in the most exciting way possible!

Soorya NYC presents folk and traditional arts to encourage cultural exchange centered on the local Sri Lankan community. Presented by the Center for Traditional Music and Dance, Soorya NYC helps to sustain the continuity of Sri Lankan heritage in NYC and share these traditions with the wider public. In an effort to unify the region’s Sri Lankan community and encourage interethnic and interfaith conversations through the arts in a post-conflict diasporic milieu, The Center for Traditional Music and Dance produces meaningful content that takes a deeper look at the island nation’s history, culture, and living traditions.
