Zindagi Mubarak is lot more than just a three day festival, it's a community which feels like a family curated with an ideology to celebrate this very gift - "life". It's a three day residential zero waste festival which is not just limited to "fun and chill"
It invites people from diverse age groups, occupations, gender, nationalities to participate equally and intends to break these boxes using various tools such a simulation based workshops, music, poetry etc.
Every year it's held in different and unique locations.
This year it's going to be in one of the most unique places of our country - Auroville, Pondicherry.
A place where people from all over the world live together in harmony. It has its own charter. Pondicherry also is a unique place in India, once a French settlement still boasts of amazing architecture, beautiful beaches and traces of French and Tamizh culture.
We are also offering scooters this time to all the participants for the local transport:) And also Zindagi Mubarak Beach Carnival which is going to be one of a kind Street music Bonanza, where all the artists and people from Auroville and Pondicherry will assemble together to sing and dance and celebrate life on the beach road, along with so much more.
We are also offering mangrove boating this time and amazing music concerts and open mic sessions.
It's also a smoking and drinking free festival. :)
Many more workshops and unique activities, along with visiting local children, yoga, mediation, playing on the beach and fireflies.
