The festival of Holi bursts upon us this weekend in an explosion of brilliant colors and fun. Everyone enjoys it just like they enjoy the ‘assalto’ at the time of Carnival. But, if you’re not up for all that and want to do something different, head on up to the Museum of Goa in Saligao. They are hosting La La Land Goa, a two-day music festival filled with happiness and magic, as the tagline promises.
La La Land Goa is going to be a magical event!
It promises to be magical and you too can be a part of the festivities at this event. La La Land Goa will act as a melting pot of cultures. It will bring forth a magical experience through music, world food and international acts with sustainability being the paramount concern.
For two days, the festival will have over thirteen spectacular acts from India and around the world. There will be International acrobatic acts comprising of a breathtaking aerial show, Trapeze entertainment, Chinese pole acrobatics along with roaming juggling acts and artists on stilts. The festival will also host Goa’s largest drum circle ever. You definitely want to be a part of it!
La La Land Goa takes place against the backdrop of the ‘Carpet of Joy’, artist Subodh Kerkar’s famous art installation in Saligao. This particular piece of art is made out of 150,000 discarded plastic bottles and sets a tone of sustainability for the festival.
