For the fourth consecutive year, cultural instigator DJ Rekha takes the energy of their legendary Basement Bhangra party beyond the club walls with a multi-genre live show, infusing sounds of hip-hop, dancehall, and diasporic grooves to the World’s Fair grounds at Queens’ Flushing Meadows-Corona Park. This year’s lineup is anchored by British-Indian singer Jaz Dhami, known for redefining the face of Punjabi music through hits such as “High Heels,” “Zulfa,” “Beparwaiyan,” and his latest single “Saviour.” Also featured is Mitika Kanwar, whose unique blend of Punjabi lofi folk and R&B includes collaborations with Sidhu Moosewala, Nucleya, and Talwiinder. Babbulicious, a Punjabi-Canadian singer and multidisciplinary artist, brings a joyful energy with crowd favorites like “Gaddi Red Challenger,” recently performed at New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s inauguration. The lineup is rounded out by DJ Rekha, who, alongside master Bhangra dancer Kala Sher and special guests, delivers a ground-shaking, full-body experience reflecting the eclectic vibe of the World’s Borough.
