Wonderflip – A Magical Circus Festival to be held in November

India’s first immersive performing arts and music festival, Wonderflip, will be held in rustic, rural Khempur, a 45-minute drive away from Udaipur. Three nights and four days in a fantastical world will have guests meet characters out of fairytales, be absorbed in a world of experiential art, hear some of the greatest live and electronic artists from around the world, and dance the nights away under the stars with abandon. Wonderflip - A Magical Circusis a combination of the traditional world of the performing circus with the modern facilities of an outstanding festival experience.

Hosted on the grounds of the Haveli known from the Hollywood blockbuster “The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel”, the festival will take place from the 9th-12th of November 2017. WONDERFLIP aims to establish a new event format in India, being positioned as a premium destination festival that seamlessly connects a global party experience with a seasoned Indian party audience. Two music stages will host outstanding artists, both live and electronic, from India and abroad. Top international aerial, acrobatic and other circus acts will appear all over the festival site, performing mind-blowing acts and stunts, creating unforgettable moments. The Wonderflip Circus Bazaar will offer gourmet food and drinks around the clock, as well as shops with exciting gear and specially curated festival merchandise. The Haveli will host a chill-out deck and spa, where guests can relax and unwind. For visitors staying at the venue, Wonderflip offers luxury Swiss tents, as well as hotels near the property. Udaipur is a short and idyllic drive away, making it the perfect destination for a weekend of romance, luxury, music and great service in an unmatched atmosphere of energy, sound and excitement.

Globally renowned International and Indian talents will drop by Udaipur to create an unparalleled musical experience for the festivalgoers. The first line-up includes Patrice Baumel, Frankey & Sandrino, Eagles and Butterflies, Atmos, Ankytrixx, Bullzeye, 8-Bit Culprit, Gypsy Sound Revolution, Gaudi and Gaurav Raina, the one-half of the Midival Punditz will be performing solo as Grain at the magical circus.

Wonderflip, in association with Royal Enfield, will present ‘Maut Ka Kuan’ (The Well of Death) – an exhilarating motorcycle show where guests will get to witness a thrilling spectacle involving motorcyclists riding along a vertical wooden wall while performing stunts on their motorcycles.

Wonderflip is an experiential festival building on the idea that guests are not just passive observers, but active participants. The guests will be given the opportunity to dress up, purchase circus looks, become part of art and performances, and holistically experience the magic and vibe of the festival from within. Wonderflip’s artistic emphasis relies on cutting edge art installations; especially commissioned pieces will be designed and showcased by India’s leading artists, fashion designers and design studios. Most of them will be of immersive nature, inviting our guests to interact and engage with the pieces. Over the next five years, Wonderflip aims to become India’s premier cutting edge performing arts festival, pushing the boundaries with expression in art, technology and culture.

Wonderflip is a festival that cares about everyone including guests, artists, performers, the local community and environment. Several initiatives translate that thought into action: For female guests, the festival offers a special all women’s glamp-site under the name “GAIA”, with pickup/drop off facilities from the airport, female security guards, and all kinds of awesome female-specific festival gear. Wonderflip has also become deeply involved with the local community, and created a village activation program that aims to provide livelihood to the community. Wonderflip ‘s eco-initiatives ensure that no trace is left behind. The festival has several recycling partners for plastic and cigarette butts, provide free drinking water re-filling stations, and have designed an eco-friendly sewage disposal system that ensures all sewage generated at the festival campsite is treated and turns into earth-positive fertilizer for the fields to enjoy once the festival draws to a close.
