MUMBAI: After making a successful debut, Magnetic Fields returns to Alsisar Mahal, a 17th century palace, with the promise of the freshest sounds from India and around the world, and an immersive experience for music fans, this December. ?The festival will be held from December 12-14 at Alsisar Mahal in Alsisar, Rajasthan.
Talking about the response they received last year, one of the co-organisers of Magnetic Fields, Munbir said, “Last year was our first year and it was incredible for us. We were extremely happy with the kind of response we got.”
‘So what is going to be different about Magnetic Fields this year’, to which Munbir said that there are no major changes happening this year. “The only thing we are doing is increasing the capacity of the number of people but it would be lesser as compared to any other festival as we do not want the attendees to lose intimacy with the festival.”
