1. International Yoga Festival Rishikesh, March 1 – 7

Yoga is India’s spiritual version of a #BefikarLife. Not just a way of life, the therapeutic experience allows you to connect with your inner self – just the way travel does! So, how about bringing the two karmic worlds together.

A three-day trip to Rishikesh during International Yoga Festival is all you need to release the stress and rejuvenate your mind, body and soul. So, if there is anything you should be bending over backwards for, it is for finding a way to get to the world’s biggest yoga festival. Though you can join it in spirit or online but we recommend being their in-person. There is nothing like experiencing the festival live, hosted by Parmarth Niketan Ashram.

Bring alive the yogi in you and just #goBefikar! Download the calendar now.

2. Lonavala International Film Festival, September 7 – 9

If you are one of those who ‘talks cinema’, ‘walks cinema’ and ‘sleeps cinema’ then this three-day festival hosted amidst the picturesque mountains of Lonavala is where you should be this year. You never know you might bump into your favourite artist or find the artist in you! Nah, you are definitely not thinking of missing the first show on Monday, the 7th!

3. Ziro Festival, September 28 – 30

Held in the lush Ziro valley of Arunachal Pradesh, this music festival is not just about watching some iconic bands play live, but experiencing the culture and art, exploring the surrounding areas and much more. In fact, the valley itself has so much to offer to travellers, that the picturesque views of the green hills, rice fields and small villages will leave you mesmerised. Since you will be travelling all the way, you can leave on September 26, and make it a 5-day long trip! Experience the #BefikarLife with #Goibibo because they have just plotted the perfect excuse for you to take a teenie-meenie break from long hours of work.

5. Magnetic Fields, December 14 – 15

Well! If you are into music and you haven’t heard about ‘Magnetic Fields’– then don’t mind me but you may have been living under a rock! A 17th century palace filled with art and intoxication is exactly what the doctor prescribed. Amongst the best music festivals in Rajasthan, Magnetic Fields Alsisar is famous for secret parties in what used to be dungeons without dragons. Live in tents right under the stars, walk through the fog so thick that you can’t see your hand, and breathe the trance music and more! And, that’s how you wrap the year in a bang!
