… AND WE ARE BACK!

As I return to hosting in-person events after a gap of 18 months, I want to send a heartfelt thank you to everyone who supported Bollywood-Bhangra focused Jai Ho! Dance Parties in Seattle since January 2010 & embraced our new party ‘Dance United’, launched in 2017 with a mission to bring various musical genres & cultures together on the dance floor.

If you have attended one of my many LITT parties aboard The Islander Yacht before, you know you’ve gotta grab the tickets before they sell out! And a big warm welcome to those who are new to my events, you couldn’t have picked a better one to start with.

I hope you experience inclusivity, exuberance, carefree joy, and non-stop dancing to bangin’ club hits from across the globe. Have a ball with old friends and make some new ones!

Please read on below for all the relevant details & feel free to DM/follow me @dreamprashant (Instagram, FB, YouTube) with any questions / feedback / ideas you might have.

General Guidelines @ Every JAI HO!

Creating a safe & celebratory space is my number one priority at every event I host.

And I would love for you to be an accomplice of mine by greeting & treating everyone like you would like to be treated. With equality, mutual respect, and a big smile.

I know this does not apply to you because you are awesome but for the other people who it may be relevant to, I have zero tolerance for bigotry, racist remarks and general reckless behavior including but not limited to fighting, inappropriate touch, etc.

Anyone found engaging in such behavior will be thrown out at once & may never be able to attend my dance parties again.

If you see something, say something by bringing it to the attention of the venue staff or me directly. <3

A brief history of JAI HO! in Seattle:

I moved to the US from India in 2003 for graduate school at Cornell University, and started DJing, teaching dance + hosting events in Portland after quitting a full-time job at Intel back in 2009.

Since then, I have traveled regularly across the west coast, Denver, and New Orleans to produce MAD AWESOME dance parties creating and fostering communities centered around celebrating world music & dance with a focus on south asian culture.

I am actively looking for teammates to help with social media & event organization in your city. Please connect with me directly if this is something of interest to you. 🙂

Hosting A Private Event?

When not hosting my own dance nights, I love DJ’ing for weddings, private and corporate events. Contact me through my website https://dreamsperfected.com if you want to work with me to throw a memorable shindig!
