The cultural showcase, which takes place at the Albert Halls in Bolton on Saturday, August 26, will feature a vibrant East meets West fashion show and dance acts inspired by music from around the globe.

Celebrated street-dance troupe Jagged Entertainment and an exciting young ballerina are among the performers and models of all ages who have come from across Bolton's multicultural community to take part.

The show, which aims to promote diversity in business, culture and the community, will provide a unique insight into the town's colourful make-up and will feature fashions ranging from silk saris to street wear and bridal gowns.

Programme director Bipin Patel said: "We've got a fabulous line-up of talent.

"This is a wonderful opportunity to experience diversity in Bolton and enjoy a taster of how it has been defined across the generations and cultures."

Three shows are planned to take place at 3pm, 5pm and 7pm. The 5pm show is for women only.

Tickets are available for all three shows to readers who present this coupon at the Albert Halls box office in advance.

There will also be a special VIP business reception, hosted by ADT Fire & Protection, before the 7pm show, and Bolton Evening News editor Steve Hughes has extended a special invitation to Bolton's business community.

"I would like to extend a personal invitation to the business community to get involved," he said.

"For me, one of the great things about the Apna Bazaar is the involvement of youngsters from a huge number of different races and cultures and the way that they all get on.

"They are our inspiration and what we now need is for the wider community to get involved."
