OLLY FEST is a three-day celebration of music, heritage, and community

- Verus Ferreira

What happens when music, heritage, and community come together at one of Mumbai's most iconic landmarks in Bandra? You get OLLY FEST.

Set against the historic backdrop of Bandra Fort, a three-day festival that captures the neighbourhood’ vibrant spirit. This is the brain child of Capt Allwyn Saldanha the creative force who turned his passion for music and culture into a festival that celebrates the best of both worlds. Saldanha has been in Mumbai's entertainment scene since a long time and has been a bridge between artists, audiences, and the city’s evolving cultural pulse.

Excerpts from the interview:

Could you tell us a little about yourself, your career graph and what inspired your move into organising entertainment and cultural events?
