A vibrant expression of bhakti yoga
20 Feb – 25 Mar 2025
KIRTAN * DANCE * FEAST * WORKSHOPS

Namaste!
Welcome, dear traveler, to the Rishikesh Kirtan Fest – a cultural exploration of India’s traditions, dedicated to international pilgrims and tourists. We are delighted to have you with us.
In the idyllic spiritual atmosphere of Rishikesh – surrounded by Himalayan mountains and the flowing Ganges River – we are hosting 21 days of Kirtan, workshops, satsangs, a boutique, face painting, henna art, and beautiful people. We’re flying in the best Kirtan singers and musicians from all over the world for you to meet.
Kirtan means “to sing and dance together in ecstasy.” It’s a devotional yoga practice where hearts unite, expressing deep emotions to the rhythms of ancient mantras. Allow our Kirtaniyas (singers and musicians) to guide you on a journey of inner transformation, through song and dance.
And of course – what would a festival be without delicious food? Every evening, we serve a sumptuous feast of traditional, tasty vegetarian dishes – all at no cost to you. We cook and serve with love to ensure your full satisfaction.
Our lives have been changed by Kirtan, and now we want to give back, sharing the love with you. If you’re in Rishikesh in March, don’t miss this once-in-a-lifetime divine experience. We guarantee you’ll be coming back for more!
With love,
Rishikesh Kirtan Fest Team
Update: Dear Guests, please take note:
Although we would love to accommodate everyone, our venue and capacity are limited to 500 people per night. Our festival is dedicated to international tourists and pilgrims, we give them preference. Once we reach capacity, the gates will be closed.
Entry requires registration for all first-time visitors. Due to the high number of guests already registered, we have very few spots available, so please arrive as early as possible to secure your place.
We also offer morning sessions, which are less crowded.
Thank you for your understanding.
