Cohesion Plus Delivers Electrifying Bhangra Night Live at the Mick Jagger Centre for its 25th Anniversary Celebrations
Cohesion Plus was delighted to Bhangra Night Live, a high-energy celebration of British Bhangra and culture held at the Mick Jagger Centre as part of its 25th Anniversary festivities. The special event drew an enthusiastic crowd all eager to experience a night inspired by the golden era of 90s ‘old school’ gigs.
The live concert featured an exceptional line-up of some of the UK’s finest Bhangra and Hip Hop talent. Opening the night was the legendary Sardara Gill of Apna Sangeet, whose iconic vocals and timeless presence set the tone for a nostalgic yet electric evening. Rising rapper Kam Boora captivated the audience with his dynamic performance, showcasing the vibrant new wave of British Asian Hip Hop.
Bhangra superstars PBN and Jassi Sidhu brought their signature energy, star power, and classic hits to the stage, igniting the crowd and delivering standout performances that celebrated the best of the genre. Keeping the atmosphere buzzing between sets, DJ Replay took command of the decks, ensuring the dancefloor stayed full throughout the night.
The event served as both a tribute and a heartfelt love letter to the unforgettable Bhangra nights of the 1990s—an era that shaped generations and cemented the UK’s unique contribution to the global South Asian music scene.
The event wouldn’t have been possible without the help and support of local resident and community champion Cllr Avtar Sandhu MBE whose passion for the UK Bhangra scene fuelled the inception of the event as well as its success.
Gurvinder Sandher MBE DL, Artistic Director of Cohesion Plus, said:
“Bhangra Night Live was everything we hoped it would be—a celebration of our musical heritage, a gathering of community, and a reminder of the incredible talent within the UK Bhangra scene. The response has been fantastic, and we’re excited to build on this success with more events that honour and elevate our cultural legacy. We’re grateful to the team at the Mick Jagger Centre for inviting us in to help celebrate its 25th anniversary. The centre has done some fantastic work over the years and we were happy be part of their long and proud history.”
With overwhelming positive feedback and a buzzing atmosphere that carried long after the final beat dropped, Bhangra Night Live stands as a testament to the enduring power and excellence of UK Bhangra. Cohesion Plus looks forward to producing more events that champion the artists, stories, and sounds that continue to inspire audiences across generations.
