Indiegaga is a travelling multi-genre independent music festival. Kerala-based artist management and event company Wonderwall Media launched the festival in 2019 in Kochi. After a pandemic-caused hiatus, Indiegaga returned in May 2022.
The festival moved to Kozhikode in November for a day-long fourth edition timed around the Onam festival. Rock bands Agam, Thaikkudam Bridge and Thakara, singer Job Kurian, hip-hop outfits Street Academics and ThirumaLi, and folk/fusion groups Pineapple Express and Sithara's Project Malabaricus performed at the festival.
The third installment, which took place in Thiruvananthapuram in June, featured sets by Avial, Thaikkudam Bridge, Street Academics, ThirumaLi x Thudwiser, Job Kurian, Sooraj Santhosh, Shanka Tribe, and Sithara's Project Malabaricus.
Motherjane, The Down Troddence, The F16s, and The Local Train are a few of the other acts to have played at the festival. Conceptualised as a music and art festival, the first edition of Indiegaga also showcased the works of visual artists from across the country, a highlight the organisers aim to bring back soon.
