There's something special that happens when people gather to share their stories. Our co-founder, Roshan Abbas, has a saying, "Come as strangers, leave as friends", because that's exactly what Spoken Fest feels like- a warm embrace from a community you didn't know you needed.

Spoken isn't just about watching performances from the sidelines; it’s where masks come off and real conversations begin. It’s where live storytelling that makes you gasp, poetry that gives you goosebumps, thought-provoking conversations that change how you see the world, hands-on workshops where you discover your own voice. We have delicious food that brings people together, and those beautiful moments when strangers become friends over shared verses and vulnerable truths.

Whether you're someone seeking genuine connection in a world that often feels disconnected, or someone who’s been writing poetry in secret notebooks, a seasoned storyteller looking for your next stage, or simply curious about this whole spoken word thing, you belong here. At Spoken Fest, every voice matters, every story has value, and every person who walks through our doors becomes a part of something bigger than themselves.

Come discover India's premier spoken word festival. We promise you'll leave with stories and experiences that don't just end when the microphone goes quiet. They become part of your story, part of your journey, part of who you're becoming. And isn't that the most beautiful kind of magic?
