Another group of TIPA artistes visited Niort, France and London, England in May. The invitation to Niort was extended by the Communaute d'Agglomeration de Niort for their Tibet themed festival, La Foirexpo de Niort. TIPA's performances were described as "high quality" by a local French newspaper. In London, TIPA participated in the 5th Anniversary of the Tibetan Peace Garden, organized by the Tibet Foundation. The "Yak Dance" was certainly the crowd's favourite.
In both France and England, the performances were very well received. TIPA would like to pay homage to His Holiness, the Dalai Lama, whose blessings made these tours successful. TIPA would also like to thank everyone who helped to make these tours possible.
