Hey Mumbaikars, want to head over for a road trip this Christmas?! Well, we’ve got the perfect escape for you – know about the iconic Nagpur Festival, your refuge from the all-pervading Christmassy vibes. This is a cultural potluck waiting to be devoured, capturing the lively and distinctive essence of the city.
Additionally, since Nagpur’s heartbeat resonates with the rhythm of ‘santaras’ (oranges), this festival will be a chance for you to know more about the cultural importance of the fruit. So, dodge the tinsel, escape the carols, and dive into a cultural extravaganza in Nagpur from December 23-25.
A Cultural Buffet of Art, Food and Fun!
We caught up with one of the organisers, the spirited Mr. Jayant Kaulgikar, who spilled the beans on what makes this festival an absolute blast!
First off, let’s talk about the cultural buffet awaiting you. Art and craft stalls that’ll make your creative heart skip a beat, a food lineup that could rival any street food haven, and folk dances like lavni that’ll have you tapping your feet in no time. But that’s not all – there’s Zumba to get your heart pumping, plays to tickle your funny bone, and an overall vibe that screams fun, fun, fun!
Nagpur Festival is an experience, where traditions blend seamlessly with the contemporary, and every moment is a celebration in its own right. The festival grounds are set to become a vibrant canvas of colors, sounds, and tastes that you won’t find in your typical Christmas fair. So, why not take a cheeky half-day on Friday and hit the road for the long weekend ahead?! Nagpur Festival, renowned and much-hyped, is the place to be from December 23-25th!
‘Tis the time to get zesty!
So, here’s the plan: pack your bags, gather your pals, and hit the road to Nagpur. Embrace the cultural diversity, indulge in the local flavours, and dance your heart out to the infectious beats of Lavani and Zumba. Who needs mistletoe when you’ve got a festival that promises an unforgettable, non-Christmassy Christmas?!
Trust us; it’s going to be a weekend of fun, laughter, and memories that will make you want to come back for more. See you at the Nagpur Festival – where the festive feels are anything but typical!
