In the heart of Navam Mawatha, the annual Gangaramaya Navam Maha Perahera transforms the surroundings into a vivid spectacle of drums, lights, and cultural expressions. Since its inception in 1979, this event has become a significant cultural and spiritual highlight, led by the dedicated efforts of Ven Galaboda Gnanissara Thero, the Chief Incumbent of the Gangaramaya Temple.

The primary goal of the Perahera is to preserve ancient traditions and revive heritage performances of dance and music. Under the guidance of Podi Hamuduruwo, the temple has successfully kept these traditions alive, drawing thousands of artists from across the island in celebration.

One striking aspect of the Gangaramaya Temple and the Navam Perahera is its ability to foster unity and harmony among diverse communities. Buddhists,Hindus, Muslims, and Christians come together, showcasing their cultural heritage in a procession that involves performers from various regions of the country.
The main attraction of the Perahera is the Sacred Relic Casket placed on a magnificently adorned tusker, surrounded by caparisoned elephants and dancers.

Presidents and Prime Ministers partake in this significant moment, creating an atmosphere of reverence and spirituality. Despite February being considered an off-season for tourist arrivals, the Perahera has played a crucial role in boosting the
country's tourism industry.

Ven Kirinde Assaji Thero, the deputy Incumbent of the Gangaramaya Temple emphasizes the importance of events like the Navam Perahera in promoting reconciliation and harmony. This event has not only become a national spectacle but also draws tourists, contributing significantly to the economic development of
Sri Lanka.

The Gangaramaya Temple, under the visionary leadership of Podi Hamuduruwo,continues to serve as a place of worship for all religions, symbolizing unity and inclusivity. This forward-thinking approach ensures the preservation of the rich religious and cultural heritage for future generations. The Navam Maha Perahera stands as a testament to the nation's commitment to celebrating its diversity and fostering harmony through cultural and religious events.
