Tamil arts in Britain

Ten years of Tamil culture on British stages.

Tamil Arts UK is a community organisation bringing Tamil music, dance, language and heritage to audiences across London and the United Kingdom. What began as a handful of neighbours putting on a show has become a year-round programme.

Presenting London Sangamam, our flagship festival.

What we do

Four ways we keep Tamil culture living here.

Not a single annual show, but a programme that runs through the year and reaches every generation of the community.

Music and dance

Classical and contemporary Tamil performance, staged properly, with artists paid and credited.

Language and heritage

Sessions for children growing up between two cultures, so Tamil stays a spoken language at home.

Community gatherings

Festival celebrations and family days that give people a reason to be in the same room.

A platform for new artists

Stage time for performers who have never had a British audience before.

Our flagship festival

London Sangamam

Sangamam means confluence, the meeting of rivers. One day where every strand of Tamil arts in Britain comes together in one place: music, dance, food, language and the people who carry them.
