The festival of Lohri holds great significance as it marks the harvest of Rabi crops and the end of winter days, welcoming the sun to the northern hemisphere. It was celebrated in Espacia on Saturday, 13 January 2024 at 7:30 PM with much enthusiasm and zeal. A big bonfire was lit near the amphitheatre. The community had arranged for chole Bhature and makke ki roti – sarson ka saag. Residents offered peanuts, popcorns and ‘rewaris’ to the holy fire. It is believed that offering anything to the holy fire on Lohri brings good luck and prosperity. Residents decked up in colourful ethnic attire circumambulated the holy fire, saying prayers, making offerings & welcoming the longer days of warmer temperatures.
