There’s more to the massive festival than music.
A great music festival is vastly incomplete without great food. Everyone knows that there is nothing worse than hot and hungry festival attendees – just ask Woodstock ’99. The Indian weather will improve as winter progresses, but for all potentially hungry festival-goers, the Sherp brings a cohesive guide to all the great foods you can dig into at the Bacardi NH7 Weekenders.
With the festival’s Delhi, Pune and Bangalore editions up and coming, take a peek into the delicious festival food the organizers have in store for you.
