Wahyum Festival of Arts & Music

Held in Imphal, Manipur, this festival began in 2021 as an independent event before growing into the state's largest celebration of art and music. It paused in 2023 and 2024 amid regional conflict before returning, bringing together rock and indie acts like Parikrama and Girish & The Chronicles alongside local artists. Beyond the performances, Wahyum stands out for its emphasis on community healing, conceived as a safe space where art and music serve as tools for resilience.
