Jaipur, 24 November 2025:
The Jaigarh Heritage Festival 2025 was officially unveiled at a press conference held in Jaipur. The festival will take place from 6–7 December at the historic Jaigarh Fort.
Conceptualized by Teamwork Arts in collaboration with Maharaja Sawai Padmanabh Singh and presented by Vedanta, the festival transforms Jaigarh Fort into a vibrant cultural hub—offering an immersive experience of Rajasthan’s glorious heritage through music, crafts, culinary traditions, and meaningful conversations. The aim of the festival is to reimagine Jaigarh not merely as a historical monument but as a dynamic cultural space where art, performances, food, and dialogue come together to celebrate Rajasthan’s artistic and architectural legacy.
Maharaja Sawai Padmanabh Singh, speaking at the festival press conference, said:
“Jaigarh Heritage Festival is a celebration of Jaipur’s diverse and rich heritage—its art, music, craft, and history—that make this city truly unique. As the festival approaches, it is heartening to see the fort transform into a lively space where Jaipur’s traditional cultural legacy can be experienced. This festival acts as a bridge across generations, welcoming contemporary expressions while honouring the legacy of our past.”
