ICFAI University Tripura is thrilled to host the 38^th AIU Inter-University North-East Zone Youth Festival, "Tarang Utsav," from January 27^th to 31^st, 2025. Organized annually by the Association of Indian Universities (AIU) since 1985, the Inter-University Youth Festivals (UNIFESTS) bring together talented youth artists from member universities and approximately 45,000 affiliated colleges nationwide. These festivals have long been a platform for celebrating India’s rich cultural heritage while fostering a sense of unity and pride among young participants.

Tarang Utsav 2025 promises to be an unforgettable celebration, welcoming youth from across the Northeast zone to showcase their unique cultural expressions through dance, music, theatre, fine arts, and literary events. This year, ICFAI University Tripura is honoured to be the host, offering participants an opportunity to experience the vibrant cultural diversity of the North-East and connect with like-minded peers who share a passion for the arts.

ICFAI University Tripura welcomes all participants, faculty, and visitors to Tarang Utsav 2025. Join us in celebrating India's youth's boundless creativity and enthusiasm as we come together to share and honour our rich cultural heritage.

The theme of Tarang Utsav, “Celebrating Waves of Youthful Energy with Cultural Expressions,” beautifully encapsulates the vibrant essence of India’s youth. At its core, this theme embodies the spirit of unity in diversity, echoing the importance of cultural heritage and the profound connections that transcend linguistic, regional, and traditional boundaries.

Youth are the bearers of our collective future, and through cultural expression, they showcase their creativity, passion, and resilience. Tarang Utsav’s ethos lies in celebrating this dynamic energy, which not only resonates within their communities but also fosters a shared understanding and appreciation among participants from diverse backgrounds. The festival invites young artists to explore and share their unique identities while learning from the traditions of others, creating a mosaic of cultures that enhances mutual respect and fosters friendships across borders.

Tarang Utsav, thus, is more than a festival; it is a celebration of youthful exuberance and a homage to the timeless traditions that continue to inspire and unify us.
