Ziro Festival Eco-Friendly Living & Music

Nestled in the lush, green expanse of Ziro Valley in Arunachal Pradesh, the 4-day Ziro Music festival is an immersion into an alternate way of life, like no other. From eco-conscious practices to its immersive cultural and musical offerings, the festival provides a unique platform where attendees can experience nature at its finest while enjoying an exceptional lineup of performances and activities. The festival is scheduled to take place between 26  September to 29 September 2024.

The festival offers a rich and diverse array of experiences designed to captivate both nature enthusiasts and music aficionados. Weaving a tapestry of conscious living through inspiring masterclasses, farm to table cuisine, plogging activities, the festival presents exclusive campsites that leave no trace, preserving the land’s pristine condition. The festival also features bamboo and local Apatani craftsmanship, uses biodegradable Tamul plates, and avoids single-use plastics. Reclaimed wood is used for signages, and free water is provided to encourage reusable bottles.

Further to this, Signature Packaged Drinking Water and Ziro Festival have joined forces, bound by a shared passion for nurturing a better world. Signature Packaged Drinking Water believes in inspiring its audience to keep things natural, live a good life and be #onewithnature.
