Ruhaniyat, the flagship music festival of Banyan Tree Events, will return to Bengaluru on March 14 in a digital avatar after last year’s break owing to the COVID-19 pandemic. This year also marks the event’s 20th edition.
Ruhaniyat began as a one-day programme at the Horniman Circle Gardens in Mumbai in 2001. From the following year, it was a two-day event. Now, it takes place in eight cities across India. This year, apart from Mumbai, the other cities will have only a digital event due to the pandemic.
