Portrayal of Vibrant Art & Lavish Indian Tradition

India, the country of colour, diversity, and culture, is rich in regional art and customs that differ every 100 kilometres. India is leading the festival field with its large, distinctive, and immersive art festivals, which only grow and get better with each passing year. Countries are awash in festivals that draw visitors from all over the world to take part in the festivities and achieve joyful heights. As every country has vastly different and beautiful aspects to its culture, traditions, specialties, and ways of life when compared to others, which make it unique and exquisite, it is only fair for each state to have its own distinctive festival that garners as much praise as others in the same category. However, most states have notable festivals that showcase the best of local art forms and are increasingly working with international artists, adding their exotic flair to the global festival scene.

What else can you expect from Indian Art Festivals? A splash of colour, ethnic music, folk dance, interesting architecture and decor influenced by Indian history, a display of traditional Indian themes in unexpected settings, breathtaking scenery, a journey through the varied and intricate influences that make up India, and much more may be explored.
