Bir Music Festival (BMF) is an independent music and arts festival held in Bir, Himachal Pradesh, bringing together music, visual arts, and community-led experiences in a mountain setting. Organised by Arya Hospitality & Entertainment, the festival was founded in 2020 by Alakhananda Sharma and has since evolved into a recurring platform for independent artists.
The festival focuses on original music and interdisciplinary art practices, featuring performances by musicians, poets, and creators from across India. Alongside concerts, the programme includes workshops, art installations, and community activities that engage with themes of sustainability and local culture.
BMF is supported by Himachal Tourism and Incredible India, and incorporates environmentally conscious practices such as reduced plastic usage, waste management initiatives, and local sourcing. The festival is also supported by a network of volunteers and local collaborators, contributing to its community-driven format.
