IITB's Techfest just got over. VJTI's (Mumbai)
festival (Technovanza) is
from Feb 3rd to 5th (I can connect here- ping me offline). UDCT's festival
(Exergy) is going on (Jan 19 to 22). Thadomal Sahani has something on 4th
Feb, but this seems to be limited to biomed.
Most other major college tech fests in Mumbai will happen next semester (S
P Jain, D J Sanghvi, etc).

Hey folks,
There are over 20 Tech fests that are being conducted by several
institutes across India over the next 2 months. I'm sure my list is not
completely exhaustive and I might have missed a few. I was wondering if any
of you know friends, family members, faculty members, students,
administrators associated with any of the following organisations who might
be able to help us out in participating or getting a slot for a Wiki stall
or a workshop during these tech fests?
These fests might prove to be a brilliant opportunity for us to do
massive outreach programs. I am assuming, to be on a conservative side,
that each fest has a footfall of minimum 1000 participants. Even if we are
able to take part in say 10 such events during the next 2 months, that
means we have the opportunity to create awareness about Wikipedia amongst
at least 10,000 more people.
Fests scheduled for next few months are as under:
