The Nirem Musical Festival 2025, organized annually by Nirem Production, concluded in spectacular fashion in Kuwait. Held at the Aspire School auditorium in Jleeb, the festival showcased Nepali art, literature, music, and media, attracting thousands of Nepali audiences and music enthusiasts.
The event was led by Nirem Production’s chairman, Prem Kumar Jimee, with Nepal’s Ambassador to Kuwait, H. E. Ghanashyam Lamsal, graced the occasion as the chief guest. The festival also welcomed representatives from NRNA, the Federation of Nepali Journalists, various social organizations, business communities, and other key stakeholders, adding to the significance of the celebration.
This year’s festival showcased renowned Nepali singers Trishna Gurung and Himal Sagar, who traveled from Nepal to captivate the audience with nearly half a dozen of their popular songs. Their mesmerizing performances thrilled the thousands in attendance. The event was further elevated by emerging local bands and singers, whose energetic performances added to the excitement of the evening.
Nirem Production believes that events like these help Nepalese living abroad stay connected to their homeland through music. Organizing an event is not just about adding another program to the list. The main objective was to bring Nepalese in foreign lands closer to their country’s art, culture, and literature. They successfully achieved that goal with this grand event, stated Surendra Limbu, the event coordinator.
Moreover, with BIC Exchange as the main sponsor and support from various local businesses, the festival drew an overwhelming crowd of over a thousand attendees, making it a resounding success.
