The IPRS Stage is more than just a platform—it’s a mission to discover, promote, and celebrate the talent shaping the future of music. At every music festival, it becomes a beacon for hidden talent, emerging creators and independent artists, a showcase for creative excellence, and a space where diverse musical journeys converge.
This stage is dedicated to music discovery, shining a spotlight on the music and artists deserved to be heard. This vibrant platform promises to discover and promote emerging creators, regional artists, and hidden talents from across India, while celebrating the country’s rich cultural heritage. By focusing on regional, folk, and emerging artists, IPRS Stage aims to spotlight exceptional talent from even the remotest corners of the country. It offers them a unique opportunity to connect with music lovers, industry professionals, and renowned artists from leading music markets. Through this initiative, IPRS seeks to preserve India’s cultural heritage, empower local artists with the visibility they deserve, and bridge the gap between traditional and contemporary platforms, ensuring regional and folk music resonates with a broader audience and fosters collaboration and cultural exchange.
Embracing diversity in music, the IPRS Stage features an eclectic mix of genres, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of India and ensuring every performance becomes a tribute to the country’s artistic depth.
