So here comes the best news on music festivals. Dates of the Ziro Music Festival are out! From 22nd to 25th of September 2016, the valley of Ziro, Aunachal Pradesh, will let your soul swing to the beats of some of the most-talented artists as you bring out the wild and adventurous you.
Apatanis are a legit hospitable and friendly lot, making people’s experience through the festival a hundred times better. On that note, we would like to take you through a picturesque visual imagination… close your eyes and visualize beautiful winding roads, sometimes roads that haven’t been treaded on…with trees, hills and paddy fields that could not get any greener. To top it all, the soothing weather and a humongous stage to bring in the good vibes.
For music festival junkie and journalist Bhanuj Kappal, the Ziro music festival not only brings togetherness in the arena. He loves everything about Ziro and the festival—the time that everyone is on the road, moving towards Ziro crammed up in jeeps and buses, hustling and bustling to get to the destination, making memories from the very beginning. Bhanuj plans to attend the Ziro music festival yet again.
The valley has a lot of activities to keep you engaged, besides music. Go bird watching, cycling, trekking or fishing. There are brilliant home stays where people are more than welcoming to introduce you to their way of life.
How to reach Ziro:
The best way to reach is via air. Take a flight till Guwahati, followed by a road trip to Naharlagun. You can also travel by train. There is a direct station at Naharlagun, from where a 4 hour drive is all you need to reach Ziro.
Remember to:
- Carry light warm clothes, it may get a little chilly
- Take your own tents or contact the management a little ahead of time, if you are planning to camp
- HAVE THE BEST TIME OF YOUR LIFE!
