ABOUT US

Ever since its inception in 2016, Echoes of Earth has fast become a pilgrimage for festival goers. An alternative summit where good times meet the good things in a wonderful amalgam of chords, culture, and conservation — hosted in the midst of rich expanses of greenery. Rooted in the idea of celebration of music, art, sustainability, culture, and community, Echoes of Earth as a lifestyle festival has always strived to be a lush blanket of expression for artists and auteurs, fans and friends.

 
The festival has played host to exceptional artists, global and local. So far, the musical repertoire of Echoes of Earth includes over 40 international and Indian musicians performing on multiple awe-inspiring, high-concept sustainably-crafted stages.

 
Beyond music and community, the festival has also come to be a benchmark for sustainability in art excellence. Echoes of Earth is where recycling and upcycling gets elevated through intent, purpose, and craft. This is where our fans get to discover, experience, and be part of art installations, home-grown brand exhibitions, flea markets, workshops, and so much more.
