Fijians of all walks of life gathered in numbers at the Fijian Broadcasting Corporation’s FMF Radio Fiji Two and Mirchi FM Eid in the Park at the Rups Mega Complex in Nakasi today.

Fijians took advantage of the sunny weather to be part of a five-hour event that featured a number of entertainments.

Radio Fiji Two’s senior presenter, Noor Jahan, stresses the importance of such an event in promoting togetherness and diversity.

“That’s what the whole idea is, bringing people together, for prosperity, for harmony, for peace, you need to work together and stick to each other side by side and then we will have a brighter future.”

60-year-old Suriaya Ali says she cherishes these happy moments that help make good memories.

“I would say it is very good and after having fasting for one month, it was a good outing for us, and then meeting our friends and families, it was a good celebration.”

Year 9 student Kashif Ali also shared similar sentiments.

“I sang a Nazm, and I enjoyed the program with my friends and family.”

Fijians not only enjoyed entertainment and religious songs, they also got to taste various delicacies.

The annual event aims to bring everyone together to celebrate Eid in more fun and cheerful ways.
