Unfortunately, BU Bhangra could not perform due to injured dancer during the last week. The UCB team had to cancel plans to travel due to some unavoidable reasons. We missed you.

Had an amazing time judging this competition! It was run really well and had a festive environment with tons of exhibition performances throughout the day, a great board of organizers who showed incredible hospitality, and of course a lot of food. This year the mela was held in the heart of downtown Richmond at Main Street Station (free to attend, as always), which was a really cool venue that was completely indoors and had tons of room for all the teams/attendees. There must have been close to 2,000 people in the audience, which made the whole event really lively. We had ample time to discuss feedback with the teams following the competition, and overall had an awesome time at this one-of-a-kind mela/competition. Huge congrats to VSB, GMU, and Griffin Bhangra for their placings and to all the teams for putting on a great show!
