Titled ‘U/A’, the festival features diverse mix of experiences - music and comedy performances, a range of carefully picked exciting activities and specially crafted immersive experiences, read a statement. 
 
The first edition of the two-day festival will begin in the national capital on February 13, and will treat visitors to workshops like ukulele playing and 3D Printing to activities such as poi play, hula hoop, slacklining, Nitrogen science labs and the magical floating market.
