The Event

The aim of this event is to pay tribute to the countless Matrys of the Sikh Faith who gave there lives to uphold the values of Sikhi, the values of Truth, Justice, Freedom & Righteousness. They gave up their lives but never gave up their Sikhi.

Throughout the one day event on Sunday 5th July 2009, we will look at into the lives and jeevans of these great Shaheeds and the sacrifices they made for us. From Siri Guru Arjun Dev Ji through to the tragic attacks and genocide 25 years ago in 1984 and the more recent Matyrs against the Choota Sauda sect. It is because of these great sacrifices that we are able to live as Sikhs today.

There will also be SikhiToTheMax translation screens, English Talkers, a number of Youth workshops and childrens activities in order to ensure that everyone who attends learns something of some importance.
