International Yoga and Music Festival
International Yoga and Music Festival
The Nada Yoga School in Rishikesh conducts the International Yoga and Music Festival every year in November. Held since 2008, the event includes classes in yoga asanas (hatha yoga, ashtanga, Iyengar, Sivananda), pranayama (breathing exercises) and shatkarma (cleansing exercises), as well as lectures on Ayurveda. Each evening of the seven-day festival features Indian classical music or dance performances. The festival, staged virtually in 2020 and 2021, returned with an in-person edition in 2022.
The 17th edition of the International Yoga and Music Festival was held between 08 and 14 March 2023.

How To Get There
How to Reach Rishikesh
1. By Air: The closest airport to Rishikesh is the Jolly Grant Airport in Dehradun, which is around 35 km from the city. Taxis and buses are available outside the airport to reach Rishikesh from Dehradun.
2. By Rail: Though there is a station in Rishikesh, not many trains operate from there, so it is advisable to take trains to Haridwar and then travel further to Rishikesh. Haridwar is connected to most major cities and can be reached easily from Rishikesh. Buses, cabs and private taxis are available outside the station to reach Rishikesh from Haridwar.
3. By Road: Rishikesh is well connected to all the major national highways. It has decent road connectivity with cities such as Haridwar (19 km), Dehradun (45 km), Mussoorie (72 km), New Delhi (229 km) and Mathura (378 km).
