As the sun set, the air in the capital continued with the excitement of the National Day Celebration yesterday. Thousands of people from all walks of life, young and old, gathered at the Changlimithang Stadium, drawn by the rhythm of music and the promise of an unforgettable concert night. Their Majesties, Their Royal Highnesses and members of the Royal Family graced the concert.

The stage with vibrant lights stood proudly under the night sky. The crowd, a sea of faces, buzzed with anticipation.

As the first note of music filled the air and visuals of Their Royal Highness Gyalseys and Gyalsem waving flags played on the screen, the crowd erupted in applause.

Young performers, with their vibrant voices, took the stage and performed about 20 different Bhutanese songs. The concert had singers performing 90’s hits as well.

The performances echoed throughout the stadium, and the crowd swayed, energised by the songs.

The glow of the wristbands each attendee wore made the night even more magical. The colourful wristbands had tiny lights that flickered in perfectly with the music, turning the crowd into a constellation of stars.

As the night drew to a close, the final song, ‘Drukmi Yongi Moenlam’, began.

The crowd cheered as the tribute to His Majesty The King echoed through the speakers. The song, filled with gratitude, symbolised the nation’s unity and strength.

“This has been the best day I’ve ever had in Bhutan. I’ve spent nine months here, and this is the biggest highlight. I got to perform during the day with the Bhutan Film Association, and it was the biggest honour. Then, walking with our favourite band tonight was also a massive honour. You cannot top it,” said Samantha Isabel, Australia.

“In one year, the National Day is celebrated only once. That’s why I brought my wife and children to watch the concert and have fun,” said Tshering Dorji, Thimphu.

“I am honoured and lucky to be part of the night event of the National Day Concert. As the crowd gathered, the concert felt so different this year. I feel very happy that I was able to see His Majesty the King as well,” said Sonam Rinchen, a singer.

“Before, dancers didn’t truly understand the value of dance, nor did we have much experience. But this year, we gained incredible experience while working with Miss Cat,” said Jigme Wangchuk, a dancer.

Unable to put an end to the festive mood, many people stayed singing more songs after the concert.

The festive atmosphere reflected the collective spirit of a nation celebrating its heritage and future.
