The Zoroastrian community of Toronto marked the ancient Tirgan with joy at the Mehr-e Mehraban Guiv Dar-e Mehr.
On July 1, 2025 (10 Tir 1404), under a warm and sunny sky, the event brought together enthusiastic children and youth for water sprinkling ceremonies, group games, and an archery competition honoring the legendary Arash the Archer. The traditional Chek o Doleh prayer ritual was also performed by young Zoroastrians.
Rashin Jahangiri delivered a speech about the significance of Tirgan to the attendees. The celebration concluded with a short film screening by the former president of the Zoroastrian Association of California, featuring American actor and documentarian Morgan Freeman’s visit to the California Dar-e Mehr.
