Goa Open Arts Festival 2026

Goa Open Arts is an artist-led festival, rooted in intentionality and community spirit. We founded the festival with the idea of making space for artists on the fringes of galleries, for unreleased films, for musicians without a stage. And while with each year our programme grows a little bigger, our reach a little wider, our ideas a little more ambitious – our intention remains the same.

Goa Open Arts Festival is an invitation to pause. To discover a festival home grown in Goa, to rejoice in the talent and creativity of your neighbours and friends, to find beauty and brilliance in the unexpected – and mostly, to connect with art and ideas in a meaningful and long-lasting way.
