What ICONiQ White and Mastercard Bring to the Festival
ICONiQ White — from the house of Allied Blenders and Distillers — is curating an immersive social and experiential hub at the festival, designed as a space to slow down, connect with art, and be fully present amid the high-energy weekend.
Mastercard’s involvement focuses on access and convenience. Following an exclusive HDFC Bank Mastercard Credit Card presale, cardholders unlocked early ticket access and curated on-ground benefits — continuing Mastercard’s global tradition of turning transactions into priceless moments.
“What began as a platform to spotlight independent talent has grown into one of India’s most recognised cultural properties.” — Akshat Rathee, Co-founder & MD, NODWIN Gaming
