A Letter From Our Founder

Dear Festival Lover,

Two incredible years have flown by since Festivals From India embarked on its mission to revolutionise the festival sector. In a world of highs and lows, we witnessed a remarkable surge, with 2023 boasting the highest number of online tickets ever sold in India! In this time, we have had lakhs of users on our platform, 25,000+ followers across platforms and 265+ festivals listed across 14 genres. 

Thanks to a powerhouse team of past and present champions whose dedication knows no bounds, we’ve carved our mark on the cultural map. Dipti Rao, Amit Gurbaxani, Sitara Chowfla, Vidushi Bhatia, Kavya Iyer, Akshaya Pillai, Mahima Grover, Shuchita Pandey, Yadhukrishnan, Snehajaya Karanth, Chahak Agarwal, Alekha Ranjitsinh, Niharika Ghosh, Suruchi Pawar, Aatrayee Ghosh, Dharshana Balaji and Gargi Tupkar –to each, we owe a debt of gratitude. Together with our esteemed partners like the British Council, led by the visionary Jonathan Kennedy, and supported by the dynamic duo of Rheanne D’Souza and Sankalita Chakraborty, and alongside invaluable support from Jonathan Goodacre of the Audience Agency, and Ashish Solkani and Rajneesh Kashyap from NetBramha, we’ve brought ideas to life.
