Thousands flocked to Auburn for the Ramadan Street Food Festival on 23 April. After a two-year hiatus, the festival was hailed a success attracting visitors from all across Sydney and within the Cumberland community as crowds gathered to celebrate Ramadan.

The event featured a huge line up of over 15 street food stalls which provided a delectable range of cuisines, serving up an array of traditional and exotic foods including; African fusion food, pizza, Turkish kofte rolls, falafel and kebabs, vegan Egyptian street food, souvlaki wraps and more.

There was also a community tent where guests were able to mingle, take photos and engage with local Councillors. A group of talented musicians entertained crowds with the Nasheed and the Rahma Mosque Guildford drummers also kept the atmosphere lively with their traditional music.

Mayor Lisa Lake said the event was a wonderful opportunity for Council to support the cultural diversity of our community and share in the spirit of Ramadan. “Council is very proud to have hosted this vibrant family-friendly community event that saw hundreds unite to share in the Ramadan spirit of peace and kindness.” “Ramadan is an important time of year for our community, I thank all that were involved in making this event a success.”

This festival was proudly funded by the NSW Government’s The Festival Of Place Open Streets Program.
