What We Do

Folk Dance in Lahore

Energetic folk performances representing the cultural identity of different regions of Pakistan.

VPAG folk dance performance with live dhol drummers

About this performance

From the high-energy circles of the northern and central regions to the rhythmic folk forms of Punjab, Sindh and beyond, VPAG's folk repertoire celebrates the festive spirit of Pakistan's regions. Bright costume, driving percussion and infectious energy make these acts crowd favourites.

We programme folk sets with contrast in mind. Bhangra and Giddha together read very differently from Bhangra alone, and Dhamal adds a grounded physical intensity that balances both. That contrast is what keeps a longer show feeling alive rather than repetitive.

What to Expect

  • High-energy group routines with regional costume and props
  • Live dhol and dholak percussion — the backbone of the set
  • A mix of forms such as Bhangra, Giddha, Dhamal and Jhumar
  • Audience participation built into at least one piece where the floor allows it

Suitable Events

  • Weddings, mehndi and walima functions
  • Festivals and cultural fairs
  • Independence Day and national day events
  • University and college annual days
