Anime and cosplay at Nazrul Tirtha, theatre at Biswa Bangla Convention Centre, and comedy through the month: New Town has several reasons to step out this November.
Two technology gatherings at Sister Nivedita University also offer a different kind of day out for students and professionals.
This monthly guide on the best events in New Town covers 2–30 November 2026, with seven New Town picks and a nearby Rajarhat carnival. The most crowded weekend in this shortlist is 14–15 November, when the anime festival, Mere Krishn and the carnival overlap.
Checked on 1 November 2026. Dates and terms below come from current organiser or booking pages, rather than direct on-site verification. Prices are listed starting prices and may exclude charges. Check the selected date, venue and entry rules before booking.
