What We Do

At DESIFEST, we break down barriers,
biases, ignorance and cultural beliefs that divide us. Through the power of music, we celebrate as ONE.

We EVOLVED

During COVID, we needed to find a new way to keep our fans, artists and brands connected. We decided to pour the same passion, dedication and a bit obsession into moving our live shows to digital shows.

The impact was fan growth, over a million impressions month and a proud moment for us to win SOCAN's first award to a South Asian music festival.
