The Fake Shaadi
Belfast Mela’s official late party in association with Badnaam Bollywood
Step into a cultural spectacle where the grandeur of an Indian wedding meets modern-day party culture — minus the couple getting married. The Fake Shaadi, presented by Badnaam Bollywood as part of the Belfast Mela, is your ticket to an unforgettable evening filled with dhol, dance, and desi flair.
Expect baraat-style entrances, choreographed dance-off stages, a mock varmala ceremony, and a faux pandit chanting playful mantras — all photo-ready for your Instagram feed Dress code. Come in full ethnic glam — lehengas, sherwanis, shararas. Think Bollywood maximalism rather than minimalism.
The Fake Shaadi is more than a party—it’s a cultural remix. A whirl of colour, sound, and community curated for those who want the shawarma of wedding experience without the emotional calorie count. If you’ve ever craved sangeet-level energy, mehndi glamour, or Baraat beats with no strings attached… this is your moment.

- Music by DJ Rutvik

Dress to dazzle. Dance like it’s your best friend’s shaadi.
