Chris Shaw, centre manager at the Observatory Shopping Centre, said: "We are incredibly proud to host these two major cultural milestones.
"Slough is a town built on diversity and community spirit.
"By hosting the Eid workshops and welcoming the Indian Cultural Road Show, we are providing a platform for residents to celebrate their heritage and share their traditions with the wider public."
The procession will begin at 11am, starting opposite HSBC on the High Street and concluding at the Observatory East entrance at 12.15pm.
It will be led by the Dhol Beats UK troop, filling the street with the sounds of traditional drumming.
It will wrap up with energetic kids' dance performances opposite Primark, followed by snacks and refreshments for attendees.
The road show follows the centre’s recent Eid-inspired celebrations, which ran from March 14 to 16.
It featured Bollywood dance performances, free henna art, festive market stalls, and creative workshops for children.
Both events are free and open to the public.
