2019, the first edition
Sold out. India’s first residential festival in the forests.
The first F of X picked 250 creators and 40 guides from more than 2,000 applications, for a residential festival at a riverside forest reserve at Jim Corbett. We don’t have the exact 2019 dates on record, just that it happened, and it sold out.
