A Tribute to DJ Mervin
This season holds a special place in every heart, as Konkan Fiesta Season 5 is dedicated in loving memory of DJ Mervin — fondly remembered as ‘Bulla’.

The event will feature a touching tribute segment to honour his memory and legacy.

A Celebration with Purpose
Beyond the music and merriment, Konkan Fiesta carries a deeper mission of compassion. This year’s charity partner is the Riya Foundation, which supports children and individuals with special needs.
