Vesak
Vesak is the most important of the Buddhist festivals and is celebrated on the full moon in May. It celebrates the Buddha’s birthday, and, for some Buddhists, also mark Buddha’s enlightenment and death.
There will be a live broadcast of the welcoming ceremony of New Buddhists (Local and Overseas) during our Vesak celebrations.
Please keep a look out for more information on the BSWA website.
