Metricon hosted a vibrant and culturally rich Diwali celebration at its showstopping Doulton 56 display home in Burwood East, Melbourne, bringing together more than 80 VIP guests and community members for an evening of festivity, flavour, and cultural connection.

The exclusive event featured MasterChef Australia 2021 winner Justin Narayan as special guest, who led an interactive cooking masterclass featuring his favourite Indian dishes. Guests enjoyed an immersive evening celebrating the Festival of Lights, with highlights including energetic Bollywood dance performances, intricate henna artistry, Diwali-inspired crafts for children, and traditional Indian hospitality.

The celebration attracted a diverse mix of guests, including well-known influencer and actor Sharon Johal, who shared the event’s vibrant atmosphere and stunning venue with her online audience. Set against the backdrop of the luxurious two-storey, five-bedroom Doulton 56, the event reflected Metricon’s ongoing commitment to cultural inclusion and community connection. Drew Glascott, Metricon’s General Manager, Sales & Marketing, commented, “The event was such a meaningful way to celebrate cultural diversity with our fantastic customers while showcasing one of Metricon’s most impressive homes.

“Diwali is such a joyful celebration of light, love, and togetherness, and we’re proud to open our doors to celebrate that spirit with our community. Events like this highlight Metricon’s passion for creating homes that bring people together, places where culture, connection, and celebration can thrive.” Justin Narayan commented, “It was a privilege to share my love of food and culture at the event. Food is such a powerful way to connect people, and Diwali is all about celebrating family, friendship, and community. “It was fantastic to see everyone come together to share great flavours and experience the warmth of this festival,” Narayan concluded.
