Event Details

FutureFantastic is a first-of-its-kind TechArt festival in India that creatively brings together Artificial Intelligence (AI) and art to talk about climate change.
The festival invites you to let your mind wander as you engage with a collection of global artworks commissioned and curated across India, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Germany, the USA, and the Republic of Korea.
On the weekend of the 24th to 26th of March, Bengaluru International Centre (BIC) opens its doors to FutureFantastic audiences, engaging them in performances and installations, panel discussions, workshops, artist sharings and a vegan market. The festival is also gearing up to host itself on the metaverse, truly bringing the digital and the physical realms together.
FutureFantastic, with its global collaborations and AI Art commissions invites viewers to ponder the complexities of this crisis and seek a way forward towards a more sustainable future. Through the transformative power of collaborative creativity, audiences are invited to imagine a world where the mindful use of technology can bring about a radically open, environmentally equitable and optimistic future. Along with curated artworks that include globally established artists the festival features nine commissioned pieces specially crafted by collaborative artist groups of the BeFantastic Fellowship programs. 
The festival is conceptualised by BeFantastic in partnership with FutureEverything (UK) and has been made possible by the generous contribution of its primary supporters, The British Council’s India Together UK Season of Culture and Rohini & Nandan Nilekani Philanthropies.
