After six months of preparations and tens of volunteers, dancers, musicians and singers, the second Mesopotamian night came alive on Sunday 15 June 2020 at Bryan Brown Theatre in Bankstown, Sydney.

Despite the fear and anxiety of the corona virus, more than hundred and fifty people attended the concert.

President of Assyrian Aid Society and event’s organiser June Ishtar Jako was relieved that the concert went as planned and audience had a wonderful and entertaining time.

Mrs Jako said the AAS has decided to do the Mesopotamian night once every two yeas to allow plenty time for the administrative and artistic preparations with bigger and better third Mesopotamian night.
