Ongoing Bharat Parv celebrates India’s spirit of diversity

If you are in Delhi, head to the Lawns and Gyan Path of the Red Fort to be a part of the grand celebration that is Bharat Parv (January 26-31). The six-day cultural festival is a Government of India initiative.

The event is a part of the Republic Day celebrations, and highlights the best Republic Day Parade tableaux, cultural performances from the Zonal Cultural Centres and various states and Union Territories, and grand performances by the three armed forces bands.

For those curious about Indian food and handicrafts, the event has India Food Court, showcasing cuisines from different regions in India, and a total of 65 handicrafts stalls. Doesn’t this sound like a lot of fun?


Bharat Parv is open to visitors from 12 PM to 10 PM. The fully illuminated Red Fort is, of course, a sight to behold.



The cultural festival is aimed at showcasing India’s rich cultural heritage, traditions, food and various talents. Be a part of the event and show your support for all things India!


It is also important to note that the entire Bharat Parv zone is a single-use plastic-free area.


But wait, that’s not all. The Bharat Parv is here to give you an incredible opportunity to showcase your talents in the field of arts. There are painting competitions where you can take part in. Also, there will be nukkad natak (street plays), quiz competitions and performances from tourism clubs of schools and colleges among other things.


So get, set, and be creative!
