🌹Parsi New Year 2026

Dear All,

On behalf of the AZA Management Committee, I warmly invite you, your family and friends to join us for the Parsi New Year Celebrations on Saturday, 15 August 2026.

We are especially fortunate to be able to celebrate Parsi Navroz on the actual New Year day (Hormazd Roj, Farvardin Mahino) according to the Parsi Shahenshahi calendar. We look forward to welcoming our Parsi and Iranian Zoroastrian brethren for an evening of celebration, friendship and togetherness.

Our Host Venue for 2026

Following feedback received from members, this year’s celebrations will be held at Whitlam Hall, Revesby Workers’ Club. In response to your suggestions, we have moved from the previous venue of the past three years and changed from a luncheon to an evening function.

Finding a venue that offers the right balance of quality, accessibility and affordability continues to be a challenge. We are delighted to have secured this venue, which offers excellent facilities, ample undercover parking and convenient access via the M2, M7 and M5 motorways, making it easily accessible from most parts of Sydney.

Venue
Whitlam Hall
Revesby Workers’ Club
2B Brett Street
Revesby NSW 2212

Time: From 6.00 pm

Entertainment

The ever-popular Dugli Boys will once again reunite to entertain us with their trademark energy and enthusiasm, while our in-house DJs will keep the dance floor alive throughout the evening with a lively mix of Western, Bollywood and Iranian music.

The HSC Kermani Shield celebrates the top-performing Zoroastrian student from the 2025 cohort. Our highest nomination so far features an incredible 99.00 ATAR. If you are eligible, please submit your results by 1 August 2026.
