The travel industry is seeing major shifts in how people choose to travel. We don’t just want pretty pictures anymore. Travel diaries are leaning more towards exploring stories, sounds, flavours, and conversations that linger longer than the trip. The Gypsy Travel Festival 2026 (TGTF) returns to Mumbai to shape your itinerary and fuel your wanderlust dreams.

The Gypsy Travel Festival 2026 returns to Jio World Drive, BKC, this weekend, and it’s bigger, bolder, and more experience-driven than ever. Taking over the venue on February 7 and 8, 2026, from 3 pm to 10 pm, the two-day festival brings together global destinations, leading travel brands, chefs, and well-travelled voices under one buzzing roof. It’s going to be a limited-time experience, and you’ll regret it later if you don’t book your tickets now!
A Festival That Brings The World To You In Mumbai!
TGTF isn’t about selling holidays, but it’s showing you what travel can feel like before you book the flight.
This year’s lineup leans hard into destination-led storytelling. Amazing Thailand, in partnership with the Tourism Authority of Thailand, takes centre stage with culture-rich cities, island escapes, wellness journeys, and sustainable travel routes that are beyond those touristy spots.
Then there’s Visit Sapporo, shining a spotlight on Japan’s Hokkaido region. Picture snowy landscapes, hot springs and seasonal adventures that make winter travel look seriously irresistible.
And yes, Magical Kenya returns with a deeper narrative of its coastlines, cities, and experiences that stretch far beyond safaris, yet celebrate the wildlife that keeps Kenya on every bucket list.
Travel That Matches How We Live Now
Modern travellers want more than hotels and flights, and TGTF understands that requirement very well.
The festival features thoughtfully curated lifestyle and hospitality partners like Club Med, CGH Earth, HomeExchange, and Rare India. These brands understand design, purpose, and place. Their experiences are best understood face-to-face.
Add to that a strong food focus, expect global flavours, pop-ups, and fireside chats with voices people actually trust. Chef Vicky Ratnani brings his trademark flair, while Rocky Singh, India’s street food authority, keeps things grounded and deliciously real.
