BRULEEDS SOCIETY PERFORMED FOR THE INTERNATIONAL WEDDING SHOWCASE

LEEDS, United Kingdom- Brunei Students studying in Leeds University had won the audience’s hearts by performing the remarkable Brunei Wedding, “Adat Bersanding” in the International Wedding showcase Extravaganza in conjunction with the International Cultural Festival organised by Leeds University Union, LUU. There were several international societies involved in this wedding showcase which include Bhangra, East African, Ghanian, Bombaian, Scottish and Polish Society.
This cultural festival is an annual event organised by LUU but it was only this year that the ‘Wedding Theme’ had been chosen for the festival and Bruleeds Society was very enthusiastic to perform on stage for the first time. Bruneian students took this opportunity to introduce Brunei wedding as well as to highlight its uniqueness to other countries.
There were about 30 Bruneian students taking part in the performance that comprised of the bride and the groom, “pengapit” and “Pengangun”. It was then followed by silat and dance performances; “silat cekak” and “ Anding Dida” respectively.  
The performance ended up with a big applause from the audiences as it was one of the best performances among all societies that participated in the showcase.
