On the 14th of April, the UNSW Alumni Lawn was transformed into a vibrant hub of Sri Lankan culture, as the Sri Lankan societies of UNSW, Macquarie University, University of Sydney, and Western Sydney University came together to celebrate Avurudu—the Sri Lankan New Year.

LBYG was thrilled to be a part of the festivities, hosting our very own refreshment stall. From early in the morning, the event was filled with excitement as attendees gathered to enjoy the games, music, and food. Our stall was a hit, with people lining up for refreshing soft drinks, water, and the best of all - faluda with jelly and kassa kassa, It was a perfect thirst-quencher on a warm day, and we couldn’t be happier with the turnout.

It was truly a memorable day, and we can’t wait to be part of more events like this in the future!
