In celebration of the Bangla New Year, Crowne Plaza Dhaka Airport is organising a grand, two-part event on 14 April 2026, honouring Bangladesh’s rich Baishakh culture and traditions. The celebration features a vibrant cultural fair called ‘Esho He Baishakh Uthsob’ and a culinary feast named ‘Dhakaiya Roshona Bilash,’ perfectly blending the country’s timeless local traditions with contemporary elegance.
From 10 am to 7 pm, the hotel will transform into a lovely Baishakhi fairground designed for families and people of all age groups. Families can enjoy nostalgic and fun activities, including rides on a traditional ‘Nagordola’ (local Ferris wheel) and a Choo Choo train, alongside a jumping castle, bubble house, carousel, and balloon shooting games.
The colourful fairground will also feature interactive game stalls, a classic bioscope, live folk performances, magic, and puppet show. Guests can visit creative corners for ‘Alpana’, face painting, and block mehendi, or browse through classic Baishakhi treats served from thoughtfully curated stalls.
To complete the celebration, ‘Dhakaiya Roshona Bilash’ will offer an indulgent Baishakh Buffet Brunch and Dinner inspired by the legendary kitchen of Old Dhaka.
This culinary experience will highlight iconic Bengali flavours, featuring beloved dishes such as ‘Shorisha Ilish’, ‘Ilish Polao’, traditional Puran Dhaka ‘Kacchi’, Kebabs, and Kathi rolls. Guests can also enjoy festive desserts such as ‘Nakshi Pitha’, ‘Bhapa Pitha’, and ‘Gurer Roshogolla’ before finishing their meal with the rare and dramatic flair of ‘Agun Paan’.
To make the feast more affordable for people, a special “Buy 1 Get 3” offer will be available when using selected bank cards.
Speaking of the event, Ashwani Nayar, General Manager, Crowne Plaza Dhaka Airport, shared, “These festivities reflect the hotel’s long-term vision. Through culturally rooted, high-impact experiences like Esho He Baishakh, we hope to become a genuine part of the community, making the hotel a place where global hospitality standards seamlessly blend with local culture and emotion.”
