Twestival Home

Thanks Hindustan Times for suppoting the Mumbai Twestival with a lovely coverage. Special thanks to Sneha Mahale of HT.

Here is the HT coverage of Mumbai Twestival:

A new Twitter-based festival is aiming to help local charities and businesses. Named Twestival, it is described as a Twitter fest that will happen around the world next weekend from September 10-13. The motive behind the festival is to encourage people to shop at their favourite businesses, donate to a local charity, and let everyone know about the cause.

The festival concept came about in September last year, when a group of London Twitter users decided to host an event called the Harvest Twestival. The fest was sponsored entirely by tweeters (as Twitter users are referred to). Via this network, the group was able to raise money and canned food for a London based non-profit organisation called The Connection.
