And that is why in November 2003, all of Bandra came together in a unique celebration of culture, colour, vibrancy and entertainment. Spearheaded by several Residents' Associations like the Bandra West Residents Association, Bandra Bandstand Residents Trust, Federation of H/W Ward Citizens Trust and Bandra Reclamation Area Volunteers Organization along with Fountainhead Promotions and Events Pvt. Ltd., Celebrate Bandra 2003 serves as a model example of the suburb's many talents and inherent cultural harmony. Since inception in 2003, each festival has been theme based, for example, in 2005 - Education, 2007 - Heritage, 2009 - Environment and 2011 - Diversity. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Celebrate Bandra」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
