BLR Hubba brings the city’s community spaces to life by celebrating Bengaluru’s diverse cultural treasures across performing and visual arts, literature, theatre, science, music, technology, design, and more. Although this edition has no overarching theme, the final selection will be guided by curatorial principles aimed at creating a compelling and cohesive bouquet of performances for the festival’s audiences.

Submission Guidelines
