PFDS April 2025 ft. Sahil & Dacou

Curated by the dynamic Toronto-based Sikh Knowledge, Panjabi Folk Dub Sessions (PFDS) ignites Toronto's West End with an electrifying ⚡️ blend offolk ਪੰਜਾਬੀ music infused with elements of underground hip-hop and riddim-based gems. PFDS transcends the typical party scene, uniting the music infused with elements of old-school hip-hop, R&B, Afro beats, and reggaeton. PFDS transcends the typical party scene, uniting the پنجابی diaspora in a vibrant celebration that bridges eras and styles.

This cultural phenomenon offers a dynamic and queer-focused space making each session more than just an event—it's a tribute to Panjabi heritage and a uniting force for the community. Join us for a night where every beat and note celebrates the rich tapestry of Panjabi culture, connecting through rhythm and sound in an unforgettable experience.

House rules for PFDS:

1) This is a safer space for Queer and Trans Panjabis and BIPOC people. You ask for pronouns when you are unsure. You respect how people show up in the world and YOU show up the best you can in authenticity.

2) Treat the people and the space with respect. Mind your boundaries. We keep us safe! And you will be held accountable for crossing any boundaries that are not welcomed.

3) No requests! This isn't your stag night or bachelorette party, nor is it a wedding. Come for the artist's creativity and the vibe.

4) Treat the staff with respect! Tip!

5) Report inappropriate behaviour immediately to Sikh or Jodh or Staff - it will be more difficult to handle after the fact.
