For the first time ever, a channel is getting out of the box, literally, and creating a festival where a viewer can touch, feel, and interact with its essence.
Nat Geo Wild is known for its award winning blue chip documentaries, and hugely memorable images, the world over. The channel believes in bringing the wild, just the way it is- primal, raw and untamed. And taking this forward, Nat Geo Wild brings to the country The Wild Wild Fest- the first of its kind, where people will be shown a carnival of a very different kind.
Starting from a very eclectic music line up with the leading bands of India, from Rock, Fusion and Electronic genre- Indus Creed, Advaita, Hari & Sukhmani, BlOT, Menwhopause, Jalebee Cartel, to name a few; to the ambience of the Wild, to rare photo exhibitions from the channel's repertoire, and add to that a flea market and a wild cafe, the Wild Wild Fest is an all day treat for lovers of a good time. There is even a wild arena with tattoos, body painting, wall graffiti- where people can express themselves. Starting this off, on an easy Saturday,22nd of December, in Delhi, the channel hopes it's a beginning for many more to come.
Talking about the The Wild Wild Fest, Debarpita Banerjee, Vice President, Marketing, NGC and FOX International Channels said, “Channels like National Geographic and Nat Geo Wild are so much more than just television content . There are values, beliefs, philosophies, and above all, passion. And we would like more and more people to get a taste of this heady passion. Which is why we are creating a potent shot of the channel for people to taste, through the Wild Wild fest, Imagine the electronic band BLOT mixing its music with the best of NG Wild's images. Imagine walking into a very 3D zone where the day easily blends into an eclectic night ,with more music,more imagery, more fervour In the end, if people go back remembering a WILD time, we would consider our job well done.”
