Pao Bhangra is one of those events on Cornell campus that everyone hears about, one way or another. This week, I was able to check off another event off the famous list of 161 Things to do at Cornell by attending Pao Bhangra, this year in the theme of Olympics. The energy and mood of the event was amazing, and I loved that I could clearly see how Bhangra was more than just a dance, or a single performance; it was a celebration of culture uniting people of a singular background and sharing the joy and pride they felt in their tradition to the people watching. It was the first time I’ve ever seen a full Bhangra performance, but I definitely understood why it deserved a place on the famous list. The excitement was just so contagious and I felt myself cheering on for the teams and looking forward to the next performance coming on stage. I enjoyed the show a lot and would definitely recommend it to anyone who hasn’t seen Pao Bhangra yet.
