Salam Ramadan festival will take place in Colombo.

‘Salam Ramadan 2026’, Sri Lanka’s foremost Muslim Food and Cultural festival will be held at Green Path on 27th and 28th February, and 1st March 2026, from 5.00 p.m. to midnight. The three-day event coincides with the Islamic Holy Month of Ramadan and serves as a platform to promote inclusivity, interfaith harmony, and social cohesion in the heart of Colombo.

Salam Ramadan is a flagship cultural initiative of the Western Provincial Council, implemented in collaboration with the Colombo Municipal Council, first launched in 2025 with the objective of promoting awareness, understanding, and appreciation of Sri Lanka’s diverse cultures during the Holy Month of Ramadan. Following the overwhelming success of its inaugural edition which attracted over 15,000 visitors across three days and illuminated key religious and commercial landmarks across Colombo the initiative returns in 2026 as an expanded, citywide cultural celebration. In recognition of its impact, the Western Provincial Council and the Colombo Municipal Council have reaffirmed their partnership to continue and strengthen Salam Ramadan for a second consecutive year.
