Mridangamela Fest

MridangaMela strives to create an environment where participants can disconnect and switch off as they dance, laugh, and share in a unique drumming experience.

The ancient Mridangam’s folklore has evolved to accommodate a huge variety of visions. To nurture a community with a collective love and respect for an instrument and a form that can transcend all boundaries to make it acceptable and accessible for everyone.

MridangaMela is at its core, a celebration of humanity. The ancient Mridangam’s vast folklore has evolved to accommodate a huge variety of visions. A DJ, a rapper, historians, classical musicians, acousticians, dancers, environmentalists, engineers, and even social psychologists get inspired by this drum. However, there is not yet a single venture that is focused on bringing these minds and personalities together to engage and interact.
