Welcome to Buddhist Festival Month
Investigate, invigorate, celebrate!
May is a month of rejoicing on the Buddhist calendar as the Buddha’s life and teachings are recognised and celebrated.
For the first time ever, the Buddhist community in New South Wales is coming together to showcase and share the many Buddhist cultures.
Buddhist Festival Month invites everyone to a series of free events so the whole Australian community can be part of this special time of the year.
A free community expo and and the annual MITRA Conference with international teachers and Buddhist leaders will kick off the month on the first weekend of May.
Be inspired, be invigorated and discover how Buddhism can be applied in everyday life.
The aims of Buddhist Festival Month are to bring the community together and to make the Buddha’s teachings more accessible and better understood.
There is something for everyone and so easy to experience!
Buddhist Festival Month is an initiative of the Buddhist Council of NSW and its members.
For anyone wishing to help out, we are looking for volunteers for a variety of tasks. If you would like to be part of this wonderful event, please contact us.
