Excitement is in the air as Sunshine Mosque gears up to host its annual Ramazan Eid Festival, promising a day filled with joy and celebration for the entire community.
The festival boasts an array of attractions, including amusement rides for kids and adults, games, and more than 30 pop-up stalls showcasing traditional Turkish food, clothing, candles, and toys.
Event organiser and president of Sunshine Mosque Youth, Yusuf Mustafa, said the festivities will also include roaming character mascots, face painting, henna artistry, an animal farm, a jumping castle, and treats such as coffee and fairy floss.
Having been a tradition for more than two decades, Mr Mustafa said he anticipates about 4000 attendees throughout the day.
“This is one of our biggest Eid festivals we’ve ever had, hosted by the Sunshine Mosque and Sunshine Mosque Youth,” he said.
“The festival is open to everyone, it’s for the whole community, all races and religions.”
Attendees can look forward to cultural showcases, including a Turkish Ottoman marching band, folk dancing, and performances by local schools.
The Ramazan Eid festival will take place on Sunday, April 28, from 10am-4pm at 618 Ballarat Road, Ardeer.
