ENJOY ELECTRONIC MUSIC IN KATHMANDU

EDM is the next big thing in Kathmandu and now you can begin your new year with one of the mad­dest music festivals in the country. Tangalwood Events and Tour.Lyf are hosting the Bloom Fes­tival—an electronic fiesta with artists from India playing alongside our homeboys, where the hills meet the valley on Jan 19 at Tangalwood, Naxal. The show will be followed by a late night after party at Club 25 Hours downstairs. Experience amazing music by Smokey, Ranzen and Bass Cult who are headlining the festival. Joining them will be many other head-banging talents.

PRACTICE YOGA IN NAMO BUDDHA

As the air in Kathmandu gets thicker, what better way to spend your weekend than by breathing in fresh air of Namo Buddha while practicing yoga? This is the time to relax and replenish and revi­talize your body in this cold and dry season. The start of a new year is often filled with thoughts, wishes and expectations about the future. But just as important is to remind ourselves that all we truly have is NOW. If you want to celebrate the present moment, as raw and imperfect as it might be, join Lisa from January 26 to 27 on this yoga and meditation retreat. Spaces are limited.
