Journeying Across The Himalayas brings together travellers and communities through installations, exhibitions and experiences across visual and performing arts (music, dance and theatre), culinary journeys, conversations, retail and much more—offering immersive ways to engage with the region’s natural, tangible and intangible heritage, art and culture.
This year's theme, “Ours to Tell” looks at the Himalayas not only as a landscape, but as a living archive of stories, identities, and traditions that are told by those to whom they belong. Experience the region through first-person narratives: voices of communities, practitioners, and storytellers whose lived realities shape the cultural landscape.
Whatever you encounter at the festival—on stage, in exhibition halls, or over shared meals—opens up the layered histories and contemporary expressions that define the Himalayas today.
These stories are “Ours to Tell”; let’s tell them together.
