The Aston Desi Society is a vibrant community that celebrates the rich and diverse cultures of South Asia. Our goal is to bring together students from various South Asian backgrounds—whether you’re from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, or beyond—and create a welcoming space to share traditions, make new friends, and have fun!
Throughout the year, we host a variety of exciting events, including meet-and-greets, movie nights, themed parties, and nights out. Whether you're looking to connect with your roots, learn more about South Asian culture, or just meet new people, there’s something for everyone.
Our events are open to all students, but members enjoy exclusive perks, such as discounted rates to our activities. Join us to be part of a lively, supportive, and inclusive community at Aston!
