Goafest, South Asia’s leading festival celebrating creativity and advertising excellence, has officially launched delegate registrations for its highly anticipated 18th edition. Delegates can secure their spots at discounted Super Early Bird rates until 7th April 2025.
The event is set to take place from 21st to 23rd May 2025 at the Taj Cidade de Goa Heritage and Horizon, Goa. Goafest 2025 promises to be a landmark event, bringing together professionals from across advertising, media, and marketing sectors to exchange ideas and celebrate innovation. This year’s festival will include a mix of keynote speakers, panel discussions, workshops, and networking opportunities.
With Amazon MX Player as the title sponsor, Goafest 2025 introduces the theme ‘Ignite ______’, urging attendees to push the boundaries of creativity. The festival will also feature the new Goafest Village, an immersive, experiential environment designed to spark inspiration and facilitate networking.
In a bid to make the festival more accessible, Goafest has introduced a Super Early Bird registration slab offering significantly reduced fees for those who register by 7th April. A special category has been introduced for members of the Indian Society of Advertisers (ISA), offering a flat fee of Rs 10,000 for early registrations and ?15,000 thereafter. Students from up to 10 selected institutes will also benefit from an early bird delegate fee of Rs 10,800 until 7th April, rising to Rs 14,500 after. Agencies sending more than 50 delegates will be eligible for exclusive discounts.
Sam Balsara, Chairman of the Delegates Committee - Goafest 2025, expressed his excitement about the event, stating: “Goafest has had a fantastic journey so far. I don’t think any event of our industry or perhaps of any other industry, has grown in stature and influence, the way Goafest has. It has, today, become the most important landmark event of the year in this part of the world. Last year, we were thrilled to welcome 2,893 delegates, and our vision is to see 10,000 delegates benefit directly from this vibrant platform. With a larger venue and the unwavering support of our media partners, we have kept delegate fees in check, ensuring greater accessibility. The additional concessions that we have introduced this year will help us move closer to our long-term vision. I eagerly look forward to connecting with all our delegates in Goa, celebrating creativity, and sharing in the energy that makes Goafest truly special.”
Registrations are now open, with Super Early Bird rates available until 7th April, offering delegates significant savings on their attendance fees. To register and secure your spot at Goafest 2025, visit the Goafest official website at goafest.com.
