Goa hosted the first-ever tropical edition of Casa Bacardi on February 7-8, offering people across the globe a two-day blend of music, art, and interactive experiences.
The highly anticipated music festival at W Goa featured multiple stages, with performances ranging from sunlit afternoon sets to late-night electronic and Afrobeat sessions.
Artists from India and abroad, including ARTBAT, Da Capo, Sistek, Kilimanjaro, Lifafa, TechPanda x Kenzani, Anyasa, and Onfaya, performed across three stages – Treehouse, Rockpool, and Cave. While the main attraction of the event was ARTBAT, the other artists at different stages made the people groove to their tunes.
The Afro-inspired electronic music was a notable highlight, reflecting growing trends among young audiences in India.
Expressing her views on the experience, Bacardi marketing director Goodies Narayanan emphasised, “Casa Bacardi in Goa truly brought the philosophy of ‘Do What Moves You’ to life. The inaugural edition of this festival was about evolving with the people.”
Casa Bacardi was more than music
The atmosphere in W Goa was not just about good music; the event included workshops and participatory experiences such as mixology sessions, drum circles, Afro Kizomba dance classes, light-painting photography, and DIY decor activities that made the festival an amazing experience. While the attendees also engaged with curated bar spaces from international and local bars, the Caribbean-inspired cocktails took the experience to a whole new level.
Highlight of the festival
While Goa is widely celebrated for its breathtaking beachside sunsets, the Casa Bacardi festival took the experience to a whole new level during the much-anticipated sundowner session. Attendees were treated to electrifying sets by DJ Sistek, perfectly timed with the golden hours, creating moments that had everyone dancing and soaking in the atmosphere and making memories that last forever.
The festival successfully blended Goa’s natural charm with high-energy entertainment, proving once again why the region is a top destination for both relaxation and revelry.
While the Casa Bacardi’s Tropical Edition this year in Goa aimed to offer a more intimate and expressive experience for attendees, it also set the tone for a new kind of cultural experience reimagined for young India that is more intimate, expressive, and deeply rooted in shared moments that truly move them.
