Leicestershire is rightly celebrated on account of its harmonious multi-cultural communities. The City of Leicester is the most ethnically diverse area outside London and the South East. Although the majority of the area ’s new communities are originally from the Indian sub-continent, there are now also substantial and active Somali and Caribbean communities. It’s a unique mix which makes life very special indeed and gives this
vibrant City a young and energetic atmosphere. This diversity is obvious in every aspect of City life – shopping, eating out, arts and entertainment, leisure, events and festivals, including the biggest and brightest
Diwali celebrations (Hindu festival of light) outside of India, and the
Caribbean Carnival (second only to that in Notting Hill).
