Barmer (Rajasthan), January 10: Rajasthan’s rich cultural heritage is set to dazzle the world as STAGE OTT unveils the Rohidi Music Festival, a grand celebration of the state’s vibrant musical traditions. Scheduled for January 12, 2025, this extraordinary event will transform the sand dunes of Rohidi in the Sheo region of Barmer into a soulful arena of Rajasthani rhythms and melodies.
Timed to coincide with Swami Vivekananda’s birth anniversary and National Youth Day, the festival promises an unforgettable cultural experience, kicking off at 2:00 PM.
At the heart of the festival are performances by over 350 Manganiyar artists, globally renowned for preserving Rajasthan’s folklore and history through music. Known for their electrifying performances on platforms like Coke Studio, these artists will captivate audiences with their powerful vocals, traditional instruments like the khartal and dholak, and the profound storytelling woven into their music.

By bringing the Manganiyars’ artistry to a wider audience, we aim to foster a deeper appreciation for traditional art forms while uplifting the local community. This festival is more than an event; it’s a movement to preserve our nation’s cultural treasures.”
Beyond celebrating music, the Rohidi Music Festival serves as a platform to empower Rajasthan’s border communities. By creating employment opportunities, showcasing local talent, and fostering cultural pride, the festival contributes to the social and economic development of the region.
Set amidst Barmer’s breathtaking sand dunes, the festival will offer an immersive experience of Rajasthan’s hospitality, heritage, and artistry.
