Entertainment and food, obviously. With a space that can fill up to numerous stalls, these food stalls will not just give you lip-smacking food, but will definitely help you burn your calories, NOT!
Performances from live bands loved across the nation also adds to the essence of the festival. For those out there with the Goan flair in you, the Goa Food and Cultural Festival has made sure you groove to the Goan masala songs by local Goan bands too!
In the past, dance performances and elegant fashion shows for the artists and fashionistas out there made it a pretty big deal in Goa.
