By Delhi, India – September 21, 2025 – Preparations are underway for the Global Festival 2026 (GF2026), which will bring together international leaders, entrepreneurs, and educators for a seven-day leadership journey across India from February 24 to March 1, 2026.
The event, co-hosted by the Swarna Bharat Parivaar Trust in India and SOLApreneurs Media House from Puerto Rico, will combine keynote speeches, workshops, masterclasses, and on-the-ground fieldwork across some of India’s most iconic destinations, including Delhi, Agra, Prayagraj, Jaipur, and the innovative E-Village.
Now in its second year, the Global Festival builds on the success of its 2025 debut, which brought together delegates from the UK, USA, Puerto Rico, South Africa, Botswana, Singapore, Sweden, Argentina, Portugal, Italy, and Belgium. In 2026, the delegation will expand to include Latin America and Australia, further cementing GF’s role as a hub for global collaboration.
“This is more than a conference—it’s a movement of doers. On March 1st, the world will see what happens when committed leaders unite to create change. Every delegate is not only a participant but a builder of legacy,” said Dr. Virginia Rivera, GF Global Director, CEO of SOLApreneurs, and Partner of E-Village.
Delegates say the Festival offers an unparalleled opportunity to combine cultural immersion with leadership development. “Global Festival is where cultures meet and visions align. Walking through India’s heritage cities while shaping solutions for tomorrow is an experience that transforms leaders forever,” said Maribel Hopgood, a Global Delegate.
Adv. Peeyush Pandit, Global Convener, Chairman of Swarna Bharat Parivaar Trust, and Founder of E-Village, added:
“India is proud to welcome the world. Global Festival is where global ideas meet grassroots action. Through E-Village, we showcase sustainable models and women’s empowerment that can inspire communities everywhere.”
Organizers say GF2026 is not just about dialogue but about action—creating practical solutions and partnerships that extend beyond the festival itself.
With the motto “The World Meets in India”, the Global Festival continues to position itself as a platform for international leadership exchange and innovation, blending India’s cultural heritage with global aspirations for impact.
