Welcome to Santhigiri Fest 2024

"Experience the Magic of Santhigiri Fest 2024: A Month-Long Celebration of Nature, Culture, and Fun for All Ages!"

Ananthapuri's Carnival - Santhigiri Fest is back to unite the city once again! The third edition of the fest, starting on October 2nd, brings exciting new innovations. Like before, the event will take place near the large water reservoir beside the Santhigiri Ashram, along the Pothencode - Venjaramood bypass road. Stalls are arranged so that visitors can enter through Gate No. 1 of the Ashram from the main road, allowing them to experience the natural beauty of the Happiness Garden and the stunning illumination of the water in the valley.

Led by renowned art director Surya Krishnamurthy, the Kalanjali Fest will add a pleasant charm to the evenings, featuring performances by artists from various states. In 2010, Santhigiri Fest gifted Kerala with an unforgettable celebration during the dedication of the Lotus Parnashala, a festival that remains cherished in the hearts of the people. More than 1.5 million visitors from across the state attended. Now, with the same love and dedication, the third edition of Santhigiri Fest is being presented. We hope that this carnival, running from October 2nd 2024, will become a landmark event for the capital.
