Your live singer in Toronto

The Greater Toronto Area has more than a million people of South Asian origin. Brampton is often called the Punjabi capital of Canada, Mississauga and Scarborough are home to Gujarati, Tamil and Sri Lankan communities, and Gerrard India Bazaar on Gerrard Street East is one of the oldest South Asian shopping streets in North America.

Weddings are large and long, often with a sangeet, mehndi, ceremony and reception across several days. Navratri is a mass event, with multi-thousand-person garba nights in convention halls, and Diwali is marked with festivals across the city.

The band works with an organiser to obtain a work visa and plans the programme for several languages: Hindi, Punjabi, Gujarati and English.

The year in Toronto

Summer is the wedding season, and the autumn belongs to Navratri and Diwali. Winters are cold and snowy.

A set list for a Toronto evening

A Toronto wedding is multilingual: Hindi romantic songs, a Punjabi dance block, a Gujarati garba round and an English set for the second generation. Sangeet nights add family dance performances and audience participation.

Getting to Toronto and setting up

Pearson airport is about thirty minutes from Mississauga and Brampton, though traffic on the 401 and 407 can stretch that. Convention halls in Brampton supply sound, and the band brings backing tracks and instruments. Winter storms between December and March can close roads, so travel is planned for the day before.

Venues across the Greater Toronto Area

Toronto’s Indian weddings fill the banquet halls of Brampton, Mississauga and Vaughan, which are among the largest in North America, along with hotel ballrooms near Pearson airport and country venues for summer ceremonies. Navratri takes convention centres in Mississauga and Brampton for several nights.

Halls supply professional sound and lighting, and many weddings combine a DJ with a live set, so the hand-over times are agreed in advance. Winter storms can close highways, so a winter date has a travel margin. Summer is the busiest season, and Saturdays book a year ahead.
