The International Yoga Festival traces its origins to initiatives promoting yoga tourism in Rishikesh during the late 1990s. Parmarth Niketan Ashram became the permanent venue after partnering with tourism authorities, and since then the festival has grown into one of the world's most recognised yoga events. Every year it welcomes participants from dozens of countries to celebrate India's ancient yogic traditions.
The International Yoga Festival is open to everyone, including beginners, experienced yoga practitioners, wellness enthusiasts, students, teachers and spiritual seekers. No prior yoga experience is required for many of the introductory sessions.
The festival is organised at Parmarth Niketan Ashram in Rishikesh, one of India's largest spiritual centres situated on the banks of the River Ganga. The peaceful surroundings, Himalayan foothills and spiritual atmosphere make it an ideal location for yoga and meditation.
