The weekend is here, and what better way to make the most of it than with a visit to a cool cultural festival where you can update your cultural cred by discovering the latest progressive fashion, trendy food, underground musicians and DJs all at once? All You Can Fest (AYC), the largest fashion and lifestyle festival in India, is back in Mumbai from July 4-6. As always, they’ve got an explosive lineup of unique finds that includes stalls from Chor Bazaar, big sneaker drops and musicians who are the next indie darlings.
All You Can Fest – cool drinks, hottest fashion, freshest music
Guests will have the chance to plug into what’s current and what’s next in alternative culture at JioWorld Drive. Nothing mainstream here for miles. You’ll stumble upon homegrown skincare and cosmetic finds in the beauty area like Poshan and Joyology, catch sneaker drops from Comet & Fila, and stock your closet with leather goods from (and celeb favourite) L’avenir and Garuda’s streetwear. A live runway show launching the hottest new brands and exclusive collections is a standard fixture at All You Can Fest.
It gets more niche with handcrafted jewellery from Silly Stacks and energy-based fragrances from perfume label Meyander with esoteric names like Telepathy. They’re even setting up India’s largest matcha bar for you to guzzle on endless servings of the green stuff. If that’s not your poison, then shrooms coffees, Asia’s first coffee absinthe, or an Aperol Spritz bar should pep you up.
On to the music, then. You’ll come away with enough new finds and genres to crash your Spotify. Right from Indian artists like Darzi, Adi x Dishaan, Gini, Ishaani and Lil Help to Australian DJ baddiejuice. Find the full line-up here. So go on and be where all the cool young things are!
