Nagaland Tourism to host 3rd edition of Autumn Festival in New Delhi
Nagaland Tourism, in collaboration with the Ministry of Tourism, Government of India, is set to host the third edition of the Autumn Festival from October 18 to 20. The festival will take place at the lawns of Nagaland House in New Delhi, providing a unique opportunity for Delhi residents to experience the spirit of Nagaland’s renowned Hornbill Festival.Following the success of the first two editions, the Tourism Department is bringing back the Autumn Festival with increased enthusiasm, extending it to three days this year. This event is designed to offer a preview of the Hornbill Festival, especially for those unable to travel to Nagaland, while also providing insights for those planning to attend the main event.
Shri Temjen Imna Along, Honourable Minister of Tourism and Higher Education, Government of Nagaland, expressed his excitement about the upcoming festival. He stated, “Nagaland is all set to host the 25th edition of the Hornbill Festival but before the mega event, our objective is to offer an immersive experience for individuals who are unable to attend in Nagaland through the Autumn Festival. Simultaneously, we aim to enhance the understanding of those who intend to travel for the festival, ensuring they know what to expect. This effort also helps to foster friendships and cultivate a sense of familiarity with each other’s cultures. Given that Delhi is the capital and a melting pot of diverse communities and cultures, it is an ideal location for this festival."
The three-day Autumn Festival will feature a diverse range of Nagaland’s culture, showcasing businesses, artists, and traditions. Festival goers will be able to enjoy a variety of Naga cuisines, handicrafts, textiles, art, and music.
