Volunteers coordinated logistics, including setting up stages for dance and music performances, arranging catering, and managing children's activities. The program included speeches highlighting the significance of Baisakhi and its role in uniting the diaspora.

Community members praised the event for fostering a sense of belonging and preserving cultural traditions. Organizers have already begun planning future gatherings to maintain the momentum generated by the successful celebration.
