GAIA Festival

GAIA takes place at Neeralaya, on a riverbank in Himachal Pradesh's Kullu Valley, a Himalayan setting with a river stage, a jungle stage and an underground space. The programming, spanning electronic, house, techno, disco and tribal rhythms blended with live instrumentation, is framed as a ritual rather than a straightforward lineup. The festival emphasises sustainability, with zero single use plastic and tree planting, and pairs music with wellness sessions, visual art installations and an artisan marketplace.
