SPUVIC celebrates Bengali New Year, also called Noboborsha, Borsha Baran or Pohela Boishakh celebration (the 1^st day of Bengali calendar) with a colourful cultural program and a special dinner with authentic Bengali cuisine.

King Shoshangko of ancient Bengal is credited with starting the Bengali era. The starting point of the Bengali era is estimated to be in 594 in the Gregorian calendar. Hence Bengali year is 594 less than the Gregorian calendar if it is before Pohela Boishakh or 593 less if it is after Pohela Boishakh.

This is one of the major events in SPUVIC calendar.  Borsha Baran or Noboborsha is celebrated with a colourful cultural performance by community members and children.
