Your live singer in Bahrain

Indian traders, especially from Gujarat and Sindh, have lived in Bahrain for more than a century, and the Shrinathji temple in Manama’s old quarter is a landmark of that history. The community is large and settled, with schools, associations and clubs, and its festivals are open to Bahraini neighbours.

Bahrain is more liberal than some neighbours, and hotels and clubs hold concerts and weddings. Formula 1 weekends in spring bring visitors, and cultural events fill hotels through the winter.

A Hindi, Gujarati and Sufi programme suits the audience. As elsewhere in the Gulf, the organiser arranges licences and the programme respects local custom.

Festivals and seasons in Bahrain

Navratri and Diwali in autumn, the Formula 1 weekend in spring and the National Day on 16 December are major dates. Weddings take place in winter and spring, and summers are extremely hot and humid.

A set list for Bahrain’s mixed audience

Gujarati, Sindhi, Malayali and Punjabi families share an evening here, so the set alternates languages. Hindi romantic songs, a Sindhi folk number such as Ho Jamalo, garba and a closing round of Bollywood dance hits keep everybody in.

Getting to Bahrain and setting up

Bahrain International airport is close to Manama and receives direct flights from Mumbai and Kochi. Hotel ballrooms provide sound, and the weekend falls on Friday and Saturday. Licences for public performances are arranged by the host or venue.

Venues and practicalities in Bahrain

Bahrain’s Indian events take the ballrooms of the hotels in Seef, Juffair and the diplomatic area, the Indian Club and Indian School grounds in Isa Town and the halls of community associations. Smaller family functions happen in villas and compound clubhouses.

The island is small, so venues are close together and travel is easy. Hotels hold entertainment licences and supply sound; clubs and schools may need equipment brought in. Programmes run in the evening after the heat of the day, and the Formula 1 weekend in spring fills hotels, so dates around it are booked early.
