A Ceremony of Remembrance is held every year in October, a major one held every alternate year. The first happened in 1994 at the Buddha Jayanti Park to mark one year of the installation of the Buddha Statue. His Holiness the Dalai Lama began the three-day commemoration with a Dharma discourse on the lawns of the park in front of the Buddha Statue. This was followed by a festival of Buddhist music held at the India International Centre with musicians from Thailand, South Korea, Vietnam and of course, Tibetan monks.
